Hi,
There's a local with three redfoots who says they cannot keep them any longer, and is asking a $100 rehoming fee (each, total, I have no idea yet).
They say the torts are healthy and growing well, but haven't included pics in their ad.
I got in touch via email, and the people sound nice and for real, and say they'll send me pics sometime today or tomorrow.
My questions are:
1) what are signs of a scam or hustle
2) what should I look for in the pics (or torts, assuming I meet them in person)
3) how big and/or pyramided is natural to expect or accept for torts hatched and raised in my neck of the woods (nh, hatched 1/17)
4) what's a fair price for rehoming
I'd love to increase my tribe of redfoots while helping out these people and beasts, but don't want to fund a Nigerian princess, or walk immediately into thousands of dollars of very bills followed by heartbreak ....
Thanks,
Jamie
