I'm looking for a leopard tortoise breeder in the Cambridgeshire uk area. As I've not heard to many great things about the reptile shops in my area. What to do?

Just FYI tortoise supply does not ship outside the US.

Even if he did ship to the UK it would not be cheap. I'm sure there is one or two breeders somewhat near you that will be able to provide you a hatchling. Hopefully someone on this forum from the UK can help you out.

Days right on the shipping that it can be sent there. Wouldn't be on the list of places if they didn't ship there right???

Shipping supplies to the UK and shipping live animals to the UK are two entirely different propositions.

Very true. But I put a tortoise in the checkout and uk was on the list. Just sharin info I saw.
Don't see any other helpful things on here yet so why not start the search?!
If its a good breeder and if they do ship that far, and safely then there shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure if they can't do it theyd say they can't. No harm done, just tryin to add something to atleast start

Try 'preloved' site-google it or pets at home do rehousing or recommendations of breeders- they both did this in Yorkshire when I was looking and noticed they covered other regions in the uk? ;)

it has nothing to do with 'how far' it is.. its a different Country... there are legal issues.
If you tried to get a tort and it was okayed in Checkout, im pretty sure you would soon get a email or call....
