Well by the looks of it, there's some support on offer as far as getting the tortoise into your custody. Of course, it's a big commitment and it hasn't even been a day yet, so there's no rush to come to a decision. If you have any questions please let me know any time

I'm in Uptown on the Northside. Also, if need be, I can follow someone's instructions on how to ship her.

Hey I mean, if that's a way to make it happen, I'm open to it

I have a fully grown yellowfoot tortoise who is about 21 years old named Tortellini or Lini for short. She's healthy and active and she's a beautiful creature.

Hey, so I've been a tortoise owner for years now, but I'm concerned that I'm not taking good enough care of my tortoise. My tortoise is a yellowfoot and I named her Tortellini, Lini for short. I got her in 2014 I think. When I got her she was 12 years old, so she's like 19 now. At the time she...
