My husband and I have been planning the purchase of two Russian Tortoises for our daughters birthday for two months. We did tons of research (thank you forum), built two beautiful enclosures (one indoor and one outdoor), and contacted our reputable local exotic pet store to order is two female tortoises. Their birthday is in a week and the pet store just informed me they cannot get them. My question is... What is your opinion on purchasing them online and having them overnight shipped? I'm not crazy about purchasing two life-long pets without "meeting them" first or the idea of putting them in a box for a day. But maybe it's just me. Anyone have any experience "mail ordering" a tortoise? And if so what website did you order it from?
