I have 3 Tort houses left for sale. All 3 are a little different, they are big and well made. The supplies alone (wood, screws, hinges etc) cost me about $50 for each. These take me all day to make one. I have adopted out a few of my torts and can let 3 of these go. Large enough for 3 deserts or...

My neighbor had 5 babies hatch all are healthy except his little guy (Timmy)...Shell is deformed and back leg moves but he drags it. There is no tail and I'm not sure if he has an anus. I really hope he makes it. He has tried eating and is a feisty little guy(tries to bite if you pick him...

I have a few Plumeria in pots in my back yard. The leaves and flowers do fall off occasionally. Are they poisonous to a Desert tortoise? I can remove them if need be. I searched around and cant seem to find an answer.... Thanks![hr] They are NOT on this list...

Well here is Shelly. Shes a big girl (~12" x 9"). Very heavy. Any guesses on her age? You can see the old paint and the hole someone drilled. At least she has a good life now.....
