How much for a tortoise??

Post by golden egg »

Hey everyone,

if anyone could help me with this it wold be greatly appreciated ..... I was quoted today £115 for a 1 year old Russian tortoise - is this a normal price? The guy was a genuine breeder who supplies all paperwork and microchips them etc.

Was just wondering though if its possible to get them anywhere for any less???

Its a present for my little kid brother. )hlp>

many thanks you lot. :-D :-D :-D

I paid about that for Rocky- he is a yellow-footed tortoise, and I think was about the same age when I got him last year
