Pet Description

Tortoise hatchlings active and healthy. I have both Ibera and Hermann hatchlings which are a med species that hibernate and then a small non hibernating sub species of spur thighed (Tunisian) . All require a table top set up with a good quality uv/basking bulb, a top soil substrate and shallow water dish. I feed a natural edible plant diet and provide a multivitamin , limestone flour, chalk and cuttle fish to ensure healthy growth. A picture of your set up is needed before collection of the hatchling which can be emailed.

Avoid Online Pet Scams

Sellers offering expensive pedigree dogs at discount prices
Potential sellers offer to meet you away from the house at a location halfway, which may seem like they’re being helpful, when in fact they’re most likely hiding something conspicuous; such as the exact location as to where the puppies were bred
Sellers not allowing you to see the mum because ‘ they’re at the vets’ or ‘out on a walk’
Advertising a puppy for sale with a ‘fake’ mum to make it look like they’ve been bred in a family home
Sellers offering to post the puppies pedigree or medical paperwork
Sellers asking for deposits up-front before seeing the puppy (which potentially may not exist)
Puppies displaying health issues such as back problems or snoring and sellers claiming that this is ‘normal’ for the dog breed in question
Be aware of sellers offering a ‘rare’ breed colour
Puppies imported from abroad and being sold without the appropriate vaccinations or being sold too young
If you experience any of the above please makse sure to report the seller to us
