Important:

All of my turtles and tortoises are sold for the explicit purpose of enhancing the public's awareness, edification, and education of these wonderful creatures. I further reserve the right to collect data, relating to each turtle or tortoise that has been sold (from the original purchaser), for the purpose of gaining a better understanding of turtle and tortoise care, captive reproduction, longevity, etc. This information may be used in future publications, updating care sheets, articles, etc. When possible credit will be given to the individual contributor but no monetary compensation will be paid for any information that is used or published.


All leopard tortoises and African spurred tortoises require a HEALTH CERTIFICATE to ship out of Arizona. Currently all my prices include the cost of this CERTIFICATE.

Baby Bell's Hinge-Back Tortoise
The Bells 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.  They are a neat little tortoise but not extremely active.  Captive hatched tortoise do quite well in captivity.
Hatchlings:                    $300 each
