Hi Everyone.

I am an animal enthusiast and recently got fascinated with tortoises. However, I have been looking for local breeders and importers here in the Philippines but unfortunately can't find any...

For members who reside in the Philippines, hope you can help me land my first Star or Sulcata. Any lead to people who do sell them will be very much appreciated.

TIA!

Hi and welcome! How did you decide on either a star or a sulcata?

Hello Tia welcome to the TFO from AZ ,USA . Why did you rule out the Leopards that have so much in common with the others . Good luck

Thanks! :)

My knowledge about tortoises is quite limited. I saw a star about 4 years back and instantly fell in love. However, I couldn't convince the wife to buy one as we are just starting a family.

Now my daughter wants one too! now's my chance.

I'm open to other tortoises. Just saw the star and sulcata in the flesh, hence the preference.

Leopards are really nice... and Radiateds also. I'm just starting the hobby so any of them will do. As you pointed out, they have a lot in common. I find them all cute and interesting!
