I have "rescued" two different Redfoot tortoises from BEVERLY'S.
Both had parasites.
Both required veterinarian intervention.
I visit about once a week to buy insects and bird food.
Today I saw this: at least a dozen and a half Sulcata tortoises in two tanks.
The substrate was dry bark.
The water was unreachable to all of them.
I pointed out these issues AGAIN.
And was mostly ignored AGAIN.
So I'm posting here.
BEVERLY'S PET CENTER may not be a great place to buy a tortoise.
