Advert Description
Leopard tortoises for sale to good loving homes only. Experienced keepers welcome but I'm willing to give as much long term help and guidance to anyone that is a novice or first time keeper. These are five year old young tortoises growing slowly and are safely out of that hatchling stage were anything can go wrong. Males and females available. All are very healthy and are growing and eating well. Raise on weeds ,mixed grasses and plenty of calcium . These tortoises can grow quite big and will need heating and UVB lighting for a good part of the year as they naturally do NOT hibinate. In the summer when the weather is hot and the ground dry they can spend some time during the day in a secure run on the lawn but must return to their heated quarters at night . I give a basic care sheet to help you get started and I'm always willing to keep in touch for any help that you may need. There is information on the tortoise trust and tortoise protection group websites on keeping Leopards which is worth reading too. Remember that tortoises often out live their owners so taking one on is truly a pet for life and a big commitment. Thank you for taking the time to read and consider this add. Think carefully and make sure that a Leopard tortoise is for you.

Research: Always learn everything you can about a species before contacting a seller. This will give you a better idea of what to expect when you go to visit a seller, what questions to ask, and what else you might need to buy.
Payments: Always use a safe payment method that offers you some protection, such as PayPal or Credit Card.
