Ivory Tortoise
The “Ivory Tortoises” are a dark eyed form of albino African Spurred Tortoise called a Tyrosine Positive albino.  It was first produced by Richard Fife in 2000.  They have dark pigment in their eyes they can safely be put outside in the sun without worry of damaging their eyes. This is a fantastically beautiful tortoise.

African Spurred Tortoise
The African spurred tortoise, also know as the sulcata tortoise or Geochelone sulcata is the third largest tortoise species in the world.  They typically grow to just over 24-inches and over 100 pounds.  This is one of the most active and curious tortoise species around.  They make great pets but are too big for many tortoise enthusiasts that don’t live in a climate that has mild winters and have a yard for their tortoise.

Hatchlings $75 each
Hatchlings $135 for two

Leopard Tortoise
The leopard tortoise is personally one of my favorite tortoises.  I obtained my first leopard tortoise in 1973 and have been breeding them for over 25 years.  They are a moderately large tortoise (14-inches to 18-inches) but are not too big for most people to handle.  They have beautifully marked high domed, shells.

Hatchlings $125

Elongated Tortoise
The elongated tortoise is a medium sized tortoise that rarely grows more than 3 pounds.  They have a brown or yellow shell and are longer than they are wide (hence the name elongated tortoise).  They come from the forests of Southeast Asia and are similar in care to a red-foot tortoise but don’t grow quite as large.  They are a personable tortoise and a nice animal for any tortoise collection.

Red-Foot Tortoise
The red-foot tortoise is a beautiful species from the South America forests.  They have a black shell with a yellow center on each scute.  Their head color ranges from yellow to orange to red.  They have bright red scales on their legs.  This is a medium sized tortoise (12 - 14 inches with a few examples up to 16-inches).  They are active and friendly.  They are easy to care for and do quite well in captivity.

Russian Tortoise
The Russian tortoise is one of 4 species of European tortoises.  The males grow to just over 5-inches and females grow to almost 8-inches.  They are like little tanks and come running to you anytime you enter their yard.  This is one of the species of tortoises that will go dormant during the winter.  They can tolerate colder conditions than any of the tropical species.  This is a great little species that does wonderfully in captivity.

Hermann's Tortoise
Marginated Tortoise
Marginated Tortoise
This is the largest of the 4-species of European tortoises.  It is an elongated tortoise (not to be confused with the Asian Elongated tortoise) that grows to about 10-inches for females and 12-inches for males.  It has a more flattened shell than some of the tropical species and the rear marginal scutes flare out like an old German helmet.  Hatchings and juveniles are beautifully marked tortoises that gradually turn black as old adults.

Hatchlings are $125 each
Hermann's Tortoise
The Hermann’s tortoise is the third species of the European tortoises and is right in the middle in size between the Russian Tortoise and the Marginated tortoise.  In my opinion it is the prettiest of the three.  The shell is marbled with yellow, green, brown, and black.  It is a really friendly little tortoise that does quite well in captivity.  This tortoise also goes dormant during the winter and like the Marginated tortoise will become active on warm winter days.

Hatchlings are $100 each
Bell's Hinge-Back Tortoise
The Bell’s Hinge-Back tortoise is a small African species that comes in a very wide range of patterns and colors.  All imports were banned in 2001 due to the “Heart Water” tick that can be found on wild tortoises.  This tortoise only grows to about 7-inches and has an elongated shell.  The tortoises appear to have a crack across their backs, which is really a hinge that allows them to close the rear part of their shell.
