I just recently suffered a heartbreaking loss of my Russian that I purchased from petsmart, not knowing he was a live captured tort(as are all petsmart and petco). We really went through the ringer with this poor guy. He came to us super sick loaded with worms and parasites and very malnurished and dehydrated. for the 3 months we had him it was nothing but round the clock care and love. On 2 separate occasions I thought he was coming around, but he finally could fight no longer.
I have a nice big table that I desperately want to welcome a new Russian tortoise to. I am looking for a CAPTIVE BORN AND RAISED Russian preferably around 3 yrs old or recently acclimated from his "baby enclosure" to a bigger table. His/her health, activity level and eating habits must also be top notch. I live in buffalo, N.Y. so it will spend most of its time indoors on a 3.5x7 ft wood sides, open top Tortoise table. the few months we have that are good temps quickly become very extreme hot and humid summers so time in an outdoor enclosure will be pretty limited.
