Wanted Testudo Hermanni Hermanni

Crissi · 28-07-2010, 06:57 PM

I am looking for one of these beautiful Tortoises. Can anyone point me in the right direction. I have a fully equiped tortoise Table and a huge outdoor area.

Check out www.gumtree.co.uk, there might be a tort for sale in your area

Are you looking for a particular subspecies of Hermanns?

I would have thought that Preloved and Gumtree are both very unlikely sources of genuine Testudo Hermanni Hermanni tortoises.

But I've now looked and these two on preloved appear to be genuine. And I'm sure I've seem them before somewhere too!

Yes, I'm afraid they're mine... And Crissi's already contacted me about them but they're not suitable for her. I'm selling 2 of my boys to maybe get a girl if I'm lucky. The one is quite timid, and has been pestered by my bigger one all week, I feel bad for him now knowing it will only get worse. So they're up to rehoming and I'll just keep the one for a bit until I stumble upon a girl...

Oh I see Gaelle. They are rather nice but I'm not looking for any right at the moment. I don't think you will have any problems finding a suitable home.

Some breeders incubate the eggs to get mostly females so you may find a little one that is likely to be a female when it sexualy matures.
