Hi, You are very wise not wanting to buy from an online dealer. Please take a look at our breeders list where you will find only uk reputable breeders http://www.tortoise-protection-group.org.uk/site/files/ApprovedbreedersJune2009.pdf
You need to read up before you decide on a species, you can find our caresheets here http://www.tortoise-protection-group.org.uk/site/80.asp Please feel free to ask if you have any further questions Ali TPG | |
