available in Ohio.
I am currently being forced to downsize my animal collection due to serious financial stress. I have had to make the very difficult decision that it will be my torts that will go. I hate to do this and I definately am not interested in shipping them but I can be at the AllOhio reptile show if you are interested in the whole group.
Pics available upon request and please feel free to ask any questions via pm or e-mail at [email protected]
I need for them all to go at once to make this transition easier for myself and my girls so please do not ask for the female alone.
Thank you for looking and take care!

This is it for me for now. :( I love them but there is a lot of stuff going on here and the guilt of neglecting them is too much. I will be graduating with my RN in June and maybe once I get started in a new career I will have more time and less drama...not to mention more $$. Then I might get back into them. I am also trying to decide if I want to downsize my snake collection too. I let my JCP's go and now I have to think about some of the others.
I will still be here to look at everyone elses torts so keep posting pics!! LOL
.and I think they may be sold, thank you Anja!!;)

Barbie, how big is the little sweet baby and what did you call him??? And if you're ever bored this week, I'd love to see more pics of him! I am so excited! I must say that 50% of the blame here lies with Tracy for letting me oogle her little baby Hermanns, and even the bigger ones were awesome! Her male is so funny! LOL!

Thanks Robyn, and thank you Anja!

I can get more pics later tonight...I am going to give them all a good bath before they leave friday morning so they hopefully do not have any accidents in the box during shipping.

Tiny but with a HUGE personality!! That one resides in my youngest daughters room and gets LOTS of attention. You will love him or her....hopefully she is a she. Um as far as a name, my daughter called him ThugLife and I just call her Little T. You can call her anything you want, I don't think she will care:rolleyes:. LOL

Anja, any news on their pending arrival yet? I am starting to really worry about them. They have never been all together like that and I hate the thought of them crammed in that box all night. I feel horribly guilty about sending them out in this weather.:( I feel like such a bad mommy. I am never shipping again. I am never going to sleep tonight if they are stuck in a box all night.
I tried to track it myself and for some reason it keeps telling me it is not a valid # so I can't. This is making me sick.:(:(:(

Yah, I'm dying to hear some news! I'm sure they'll be fine, tho!

But the shipping thing... I totally here you... when I finally get some breeding going, I don't think I'll be able to ship them, it'd just be way to much stress!

Thank you, that is what Anja keeps saying too, but last I heard they were in Atlanta I think.
I am really freaking out about this. They were not just breeders or random reptiles...they were my babies and I feel like I betrayed their trust that I would always take good care of them.

but you know they are going into good hands, and as for the ickle baby (I think i'll call her Dasani) you'll see TONS of pics and if you're ever in WI come and visit! And if you ever can have more torts and just really want her back, we can talk!

you know when Shiro was shipped to me, she was shipped with DHL and was due by 10 am... at 7 am they had her listed in NY and I was freaking. but she arrived at 10:30. so there is hope!
