Tortoise And Piggies

[piggy person]

We're going to get a tortoise yay! I was wondering if it would be safe for both pig and tort to put them together in the same run? Thanks

I would not advice mixing any different species. The tortoise could bite them.

What kind of tortoise are you getting? I have a 5 year old rescued hermanns who I've had for 12 months now!

I'd not put them in the same run, in fact I'd keep them in separate areas - reptiles carry salmonella and other bugs that you wouldn't want your pigs to pick up.
