Jacqui's Captive Bred Tortoises

The cost of the tortoise from me is inclusive of ongoing support for as long as you need it. A lot of care and love has been invested in these babies and I am selective and careful that they only go to good homes where they will be loved and cared for in the best possible way possible.

Where possible, I will deliver each one personally making only a small charge towards fuel costs. I will not post a living animal and if you consider this acceptable practice, then I would kindly ask that you seek to purchase your tortoise elsewhere. Upon delivery, I will also check your set up, advise where needed and talk you through everything, leaving you confident and happy to take over the care of your baby.

Notifications, as of January 2012

I have baby Hermans & Horsfields hatched and ready to go to thier new homes.

Upon delivery you will receive a perfectly healthy and happy baby that is parasite and disease free. You will receive a hatch certificate, the Article 10 licence (not applicable for Horsfields) and all weight records since hatch, I no longer supply the handbooks, as all of the same information is on my website and I can update or add to this quicker and easier, ensuring you have the most up to date information. 

I only accept cash on delivery please, no cheques.

Note: In the absence of baby tortoises at the time you would like one, I operate a waiting list which I will happily add your details to and contact you as soon as any eggs hatch. As I am a hobbyist not a breeder, I only have babies at the natural times and amounts that would pertain to the natural habitat! I do not farm or think it ethical to keep my females laying all the time. Please feel free to make contact now for more information.

Please note: I reserve the right to cancel off anyone on my waiting list if i find they are not able to provide a suitable home & suitable care for one of my babies. I also reserve the right to cancel if i am "messed around" by anyone, as I always have people waiting on my list and never breed enough each year to meet demand, as I only have babies when my ladies would naturally have them in this wild. This, of course, excludes hibernation time!
