Beautiful tort, that's amazing 36 US dollars for this little dude. I'm moving!

Haha, thank you everyone. I know 36 Dollars is very cheap - even for me.
I think they're the cheapest torts that are sold here. Sulcatas, Leopards, Redfoots... all 2-3 times the price.

He ate a little bit this morning and went back to sleep. I'm wondering if that's "normal"? Didn't eat much. But I'm going to buy some fresh greens later and see how he'll like them.

@Silverstar - I have no idea what kind he is. Any guess? I don't think he's Sri Lankan (just because I think it's easier to get the torts from India than Sri Lanka) but I could be wrong.

Ah, everytime I look at him, I get a little sugar rush.

Wow, beautiful star tortoise! He looks special I'm surprised at the price. It's about 10x cheaper than what we pay for in US. You got a good deal! It's a little sad that they're wild-caught... esp. the fact that many species are housed together. I hope you provide him good care. I wish I could just go to Thailand and bring a little guy home.
