Preview of the first image of Mediterranean spur thigh tortoises - hatchlings.

Advert Description

Mediterranean Spur Thigh hatchlings - hatched last summer from our pet tortoises. These friendly little guys have been well handled and fed exclusively on a diet of scavenged weeds and flowers, supplemented with nutrobal (and with access to calcium from Cuttlefish bones). They will need to be housed on a tortoise table, not in a vivarium, with an appropriate substrate of play sand and top soil and access to a UVA/UVB - heat lamp. Care sheets and advice are available and I'm very happy to chat through any concerns or questions you have to make sure they get the best possible start!

Preloved Safety Advice:

  • Important: Before responding to any pet ad, be sure to read our Pet Buying Checklist and download your copy for free.
  • Photos: Photos on ads can be misleading. Sellers may temporarily group animals in confined spaces, purely to get a photo. These images don't represent an animal's natural habitat. Always visit the pet in their current home so you can see their housing for yourself.
  • 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.
  • Reporting Concerns: If you've seen an ad on Preloved the breaches our welfare listing guidelines, you can click on 'Report Advert' just below the ad and we'll investigate your concerns.
