Awh poop 😭Egyptian Tortoises are now on the Endangered Species List. You can no longer sell them across state lines. If there is no one already breeding them in Rhode Island you are out of luck unless you can find a breeder that is willing to gift one to you. Be wary of anyone offering to sell them to you.
You could try a Western Hermann's Tortoise instead. Their sizes are similar and they are easier to maintain up there in New England than Egyptian Tortoises. I know this for a fact because I have kept both species and lived in MA and CT from 1949 to 2002.Awh poop 😭
