Do you have papers with this tortoise. Can you give details of how she has been kept previously please. I do have a rehoming list for people looking for tortoises, but need to know the area you are in and a little bit about the history if this is OK. Shelby looks to have some unusual shell formation, so would also need to know if this was likely to be a problem. Take care Sue | |

I do have a lady interested in rehoming a tortoise. I have a list of potential rehomers, but this lady sounds very nice. Would you be interested in me passing on your details? They are not interested in breeding and just want a single tortoise to care for. If you contacnt me on wizzasmum@aol.com, I can help you to progress from there. You would be advised to give a letter of gifting though in case she wanted to microchip and register him. Take care Sue | |
