Found this from a guy named RedoFootMan on kingsnake. He is local and only about 45 minutes away. Selling them for $200 a piece for pick-up.

Is that a Sulcata in the middle? if so, is it just a different type of coloring for the shell?

Thanks!

I believe they will vary in color. I have one that is dark, and then I have one that is very light in color. Just remember how big they get and you have to find a place for him to hang out in the winter!!!!! But they are cute..

Yeah, I've been reading old posts in the Sulcata threads and deciding against it, lol. They get way too big for a person like me who may or may not have a huge area for them in the near future. The smaller torts won't be a problem, but something that gets over 100lbs and can move heavy objects? Not so sure about, lol.

They are darn cute tho!

If you do decide to get a sulcata, there are many nice ones needing homes in turtle and tortoise rescues. You can usually get them free from a rescue.

Most definately. I probably wouldn't do that until I knew for certain that I'd have enough room for them. My current situation isn't very inviting for animals 100lbs+, lol.
