Male Hermann's tortoise

TortoiseTips · 03-10-2010, 07:38 PM

Hello,
I am hoping to rehome my tortoise with someone who has more time to dedicate to him than I currently do.

As I said he is a Hermanns tortoise, around 3 years old I believe.

He was given to my friend as a thank you present [she worked in a petshop]. The person who gave her the tort [Sheldon] thought he was a Horsefield. He was advertised as such.Therefore he came with no certificate.

He also has only one eye.

He was kept with another tortoise who didn't look like him, so this one was perhaps a horsefield. So whether that means he would be ok with other torts I don't know.

He lived in a viv in the petshop, but since living with me has been on sand/soil mix in a tortoise table.

If the person that rehomes him wants/needs the table they can of course have it. He has a combi heat and uv bulb, which is brand new. The connector blew last week so needed new bulb and conector. It is a ceramic bulb holder and 160 watt bulb.

Can't find camera at the mo to take updated pic but have some on past post.

Sorry if there's any more info anyone would like please just ask. I am in Skegness, Lincolnshire.

Thanks for reading.

Bec
