Sadly it isn't mine. I was looking through fauna classifieds for a frt and came across him. Figured I could see how many people knew their giant tortoises while having fun seeing your guy's reactions.

Hopefully sometime in the future if I can figure out how to do a greenhouse cover for our pond then I could have a few big tortoises along with a veggie garden.

Is that a galapagos tortoise? How did anyone get their hands on one?

Yep. There's plenty of breeders around you just need a pile of cash and a few contacts. This little guy was $7,500.

That's actually not too big of a deal if you live in the right part of the country.

I guess galapagos tortoises would need about 40-80 sq. ft?
