I no longer have a suitable environment for my California Desert Tortoises and need to find a new home for them. I live in Culver City, CA. I have someone who is going to take one this weekend, but the other will still need a home.

I can add measurements and photographs if there is interest.

Known information (need to double check paper work when I get home):
  • About 7-8 years old.
  • Received from former acquiantance who was breeding them
  • Healthy
  • Unknown gender
  • Fully legal
  • Registered/licensed
Please let me know if you are in the area and interested in rescuing or adopting a California Desert Tortoise.

Hi, and welcome!

It is perfectly fine for you to adopt out your CDT. If you include the license sticker with the tortoise the new owners can transfer ownership from you to them.

Sorry you have to part with them. I know it must be hard for you.

Thank you so much for getting back to me! That is good to know. I have edited my original post to remove that verbiage. I no longer have contact with the breeder.

I will include the sticker and paperwork with the tortoise once I have found some new owners.

Yes, it is hard to part with them. It really saddens me. They've always had a yard since leaving their terrarium, but I no longer have the living situation for that.
