I have opportunity to purchase yearling Egyptian tortoise

[JDDV97]

Hello I have a friend offering to sell me one of his 7 yearlings in my state legally for $800. Wondering if this is fair , I hear they’re very difficult to raise . Should I avoid or consider it again ?

You've had a tough go of it already. Do you want a fun easy species that is hardy and adaptable, or do you want a shy, temperamental species that you have to constantly worry about every detail?

You’re right sometimes you just gotta hear things twice. I’ve spoken to some cherry head breeders and will be selecting one next weekend
