I have 2 almost 5 year old captive bred Russians that we have had since hatchlings. This winter they have spent their weeks in my son's 3rd grade class. The teacher has really taken to them and would like one of her own. The parents would like to get her one as an end of the year gift. This would give her the summer to get the little one adjusted and give her students the same wonderful experience with tortoises. I plan on leaving her my large tupperware enclosure and lighting set as well as helping her apply for grants to replace the lighting on a regular basis. Since she has had the care of our tortoises all winter she is already acustomed to their care and I feel she will do a wonderful job caring for them.
My problem is that my breeder doesn't have any eggs yet this year and we need the baby by the week of May 20th. Does anyone have any hatchlings? There are several online sites with some but I don't know how reputable they are. Thank you for your help!
P.S. My torts have an outside summer enclosure!
