My local pet store has always been pretty favorable with me, pretty knowledgable with all of its animals. But they are horrible with tortoises.
I walked in today and they were selling a medium sized sulcata with substantial pyramiding for $180. It was housed in a tank that was probably about 50 gallons with alfalfa substrate. The worst part was it was in the same cage as a bearded dragon.
This wasnt the first instance of horrible tortoise conditions. I remember seeing two red foots housed in dry alfalfa substrate with an empty water dish.
If only I had the money and space to save all of these tortoises....
