4 "Sulcata russians", a California Desert 'Turtle' and a box turtle

[Neltharion]

They're all housed together. I don't know where he got his info on 'sulcata russians'. He's included a California Desert "Turtle" for SALE. And he's got them all mixed together with a box turtle. Hard to tell from the pics if it really is a box turtle or if its a mis-id.

Probably because I sent them an email advising them the fine for buy/sell ing a desert tortoise is $10,000 and it would be wise if they removed the desert tortoise from the ad. Too bad I didn't think to tell them there's no such thing as a Russian Sulcata. oh well.

I saw this ad too and sent him a message! I thought about buying them just to get them out of there!

Good for you! Only problem is he still has them and sounds like he knows nothing about them. Hope he finds a good home for them.

Just an FYI it is illegal to buy a CDT as well.

Yes, I know, so I offered him money for the others and said I would take the DT with the bunch.

For some reason I can't see the add on my computer anymore but I still comes up on my phone. I just noticed that he lives in the same city as I do! Small world!!
