I saw this post on Craigslist
https://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/for/5939288569.html
While the price is too high for me, I wrote the seller to let him know that it looked like his tortoise was suffering from dehydration and if he didn't have luck rehoming him that he would probably need to increase his humidity level and increase soaking. He was very kind and was asking how I could tell so I gave him a short run down on pyramiding, hydration, uvb and malnutrition(mostly info I got from this forum ). I'm still communicating with him, is there anything else I should let him know? He's very eager to turn things around if he can't rehome. Maybe if I can give him the proper info he might become attached to him while caring for the little guy. He said the tort is his sons and his son lost interest - I've been hearing that story a lot lately. Any help would be appreciated.
