Sad sale!

joekent · 12-07-2010, 10:20 PM

It is with much regret (and some re-sexing) that have decided to sell my two male horsefields. They were originally thought to be female and long-term I cannot keep them, as much as I want to! They are now showing interest in my two females and although there is no aggression yet, I want to find new homes for them before there is any fighting. I am now therefore looking for separate homes for them both where they will continue to be loved and cared for.

Both these tortoises have really had the best care (and I am sure many people would be happy to vouch for how well looked after they are!) They have had three vet checks and have recently been wormed. Both have been in tip-top health and are very active, friendly tortoises. They have been fed on a weed-diet that has been supplemented with nutrobal. They are pampered with daily baths and are currently loving the sunny weather in their large outdoor planted run.

The lighter of the two is slighter smaller at 4 inches, the darker of the two is 5 inches.
I want them to go to a house where they will be looked after and have access to an outside run. I will always been on hand if you ever need any help/advice and would like to keep in touch about their progress.

To recoup some of the money I have spent on them I am looking for £120 for each tortoise.

The smaller of the two:

And the larger, darker one:

They are both gorgeous, hope you get a good home for them, it would be lovely if they were close by then you could visit them too.

Thanks for your kind comments Rekkimaous and Ade! I am in no rush to rehome these boys so will keep hunting for the perfect owners!
