horsefield need some care asap
Posted: 23/01/2010 by sherri

Hello I thought I put this on the web site  I sorry I f I cant put this on here but I think this tortoise really needs someone who know about horsefield  tortoise   I myself no nothing about them  as I have hermans but    I feel that this tortoise isn’t getting any help or care that he or she needs 

 

Here is the link that this was on  and what was said  see below

and here is what its about

 

Hi everyone

Right I have been given a 1yr old horsefield tortoise to rehome as previous owner lost interest, I think it is a female, she is blind by the looks of it as neither of her eyes open, she comes with her tortoise table and bits, to be honest I haven't got a clue about tortoises and I haven't really got time for her.

£50 O.N.O to ensure a good home.

Hi

Sounds awful.  No idea why a person is asking £50 for it.  Surely someone would love to give this tortoise a new home and give it the care it needs.  I would have it as I have another horsefield about the same age and they could be friends but live in the West Midlands so it is too far.

Do they honestly think asking £50 is going to ensure a "Good" home??!!! This tort by the sounds of it REQUIRES..Specialist care...Think they got a nerve asking for £50...I so feel for the little one, I really do :( Wished I could help but this one requires experienced hands! Hope he/she gets this

This little one did find a good home. I saw it on another forum. The lady who had it has had torts for years.
