Hello,
Free to good home, we have 5 baby tortoise's. Three of them are about 3 inches long and will need to stay together.
Two of them are about 2 inches long and will need to be together.
We live on STX. The parents are located on site.
If interested please let us know.
Have a great day!

Would love to take them, but I am in St Thomas! I have a few dozen of them already! Dr Williamson sometimes calls me for his strays as well! To bad the boat isn't running.

Have you checked with Tom at Calabash Realty or with Tom at Schooners bay market in STX. I know that they raise all sorts of turtle and tortoises on there property.

Not interested - but very curious - How large do they get? Sounds cool.
