Hi all, I am looking to get the word out that I am selling my Aldabra tortoises, Doug and Pete. Photos are over a year old, they have both gown substantially since then.
I have raised tortoises for 21 years. The first 13 years I raised African Leopard tortoises and successfully bred, hatched, and sold African Leopards across the country. In 2013 I got my first Aldabra tortoise and been raising these remarkable giants since.
Pete looks to be male, but not guaranteed. They spend the winter months inside in our basement in a very large custom enclosure, complete with ramp and motorized garage door for access to the outdoors. They spend the summer months outside 24/7 in my backyard with custom 6' fence designed specifically for safe tortoise enclosure.
Pete is 9 years old, likely male, 27” long, and 140 lbs
Doug is 9 years old, likely male, 28" long, and 166 lbs
Don't underestimate the investment potential! Reptile Gardens in North Dakota recently purchased an adult male for over $125,000.
They are healthy and vibrant with 140 years of life ahead of them. I take excellent care of them. Their diet is approx. 85 % organic orchard hay, 10% Mazuri Tortoise Chow, 5% fresh veggies.
I've done the hard work raising them from 13 ounce babies, through all the fine chopping of food, the tough-love work of getting them to love eating hay (which they devour now - dry and coarse right from the bale!). You get to to enjoy them during their amazing growth years. They are still just youngsters and are gaining pounds every month.
I am putting them up for sale to serious buyers. This is a unique opportunity to own one of the worlds most magnificent reptiles!
This ad is for Pete. Pete is likely male, but not guaranteed. See ad for Doug as well
Pete 28" - 140lbs $12,000
