Think they would ship them over the pond :p

You can get a baby leopard tortoise for around $50, so $800 for that group is a pretty high price to pay.

In reality, who has the space to house 10 leopard tortoises? Most people intersted in a lot would buy them for resale, but there wouldn't be much profit in resale if you pay $800 to start with.

I have 23 eggs in the incubator right now, half going on 3 months, and the mother is digging holes in the yard again. I'm going to be looking to find homes for a bunch of leopards soon and I won't be looking to get rich in the process... :D

I'm curious as well. I got mine for $70, and that was the cheapest I found them by far.

I never see Leo's for less than $100 on my local Craigslist, at expos, and fauna ads. Sulcatas I see for $50-60 but never Leo's

Me neither...have been admiring them, but haven't seem them for under $100 either.


I've been admiring them for awhile now, but have not seen any under $100


Sorry about prior post...still learning...lol

What I meant to say was that I have not seen any under $100 either... I've been admiring them for awhile now; they are beauties!

Hey Greg, let me know when you're ready to adopt. I have a Sulcata but would love a leopard too. Thanks. Brad.

Next time you see baby leopards for $50, please PM, Email, AND call me right away. That's cheaper than I can get them directly from the breeder in wholesale lots of 50 or more.
