Where to find a mate for my tort

Toni M · 18-09-2008, 02:45 PM

I am in the market for a playmate for Georgie. She is a may 2006 hatchling although she apparently is more like thew size of a 5 year old. I would like another about the same size.

I am aware that you have to quarantine them for 6 months.

Where would be the best place to start my search?

Hermans,

You could try the breeders list, as some keepers if they dont sell their hatchlings keep them on. So you might find a larger tort.
Try the ad section on here?

I'm also hoping to find one of my tortoises a companion.

I have a rescued Moroccan T.g.g who I am trying to find a friend for. Its proving very difficult indeed!
