    Looking to adopt Sulcatta, red foot , or yellowfoot tortoise

    Someone is giving away an African tortoise where my son works. She says it's an African tortoise. I'm not sure. Also can you tell much about his health in this pic? He's only been fed romane and calcium. Is anyone interested in this tortoise? I have a sulcatta.
