That is very nice. I applaud your creativity. That must have cost a fortune. -Schribby

Ha!! Sounds like something I would do. But $350, I think the vet was riping you off. My dog's leg surgery only cost around $400-500(forgot) -Schribby

No its supposed to work

I was at a petsmart recently and they had a redfoot on display with what i think was a russian tortoise and the tortoise enclosure was attached to a red eared slider tank. It was just sad. They should hire some people who know what they are doing

so a summary of everything you guys have told me is that tortoise supply is a great place to buy, tortoise yard you can choose your tortoise by picture and personality, and be sure to check the, for sale topic, and kingsnake and rescues.
