Have you tried reaching out to any breeders on this site? You could always try kingsnake.com as well.

Where are you?

What size are you looking for? Hatchling or adult?

Male or female?
Do you already have one or more?
Do you already have a heated night box built?

I know of a lady trying to place two of them.
Male or female doesnt matter. I have large yard and a rubbermaid shed that I plan on converting to a heated shed i have enough room for 2 and I could separate them if needed

I've tried to use dog houses, deck boxes, sheds and many other things over the years. None of them work very well, so I started designing and building my own. They work perfectly. Here are two examples:

The rubbermade shed thing doesn't work here. It is too drafty and not insulated well enough. Believe me, I tried several types.

Someone else is also looking. I may send the female with them and get the male to you.

What type of fencing? Visual barrier all around? Have you already got food growing?

Send me your number in a private message and I will get it to the owner of the tortoises. She will also have lots of questions for you.
