Thank you so very much my baby tortoise arrived this afternoon no nerve at all with her. she enjoy being cuddled. she had some dandelion leaves which she seem to have enjoyed. A big thank you to the delivery man he was very polite and helpful. Thinking of a name for her now. Once thank you I’ll keep doing updates on them.
Super happy customer here! Georgie my new baby russian tortoise is perfect. I searched carefully for a tortoise breeder that offered on captive bred russian tortoises for sale online and I am happy I chose TTTS! Shipping was safe and secure and Georgie came out very active and ready to eat. If you are looking for a baby russian tortoise then do not go to the pet store! They are all wild caught young adults. Real captive bred baby russian tortoise for sale are more expensive but WELL worth it! We love her already!!!
It has been 6 months since I bought my Chinese box turtles pancakes for sale from TT. I waited this long to write my review after quickly finding out (after I bought him) that most hatchlings don’t survive long due to improper husbandry by the breeder as well as the whole ordeal of being shipped. I am happy to say that my baby is healthy and thriving at 7 months old, and when I contacted TT to get his exact hatch date a month after buying him (vet wanted this info), they were able to answer right away. I love my new baby turtles so much and wouldn’t trade him for anything!
I ordered 3 hatchling pink belly side neck turtles, they arrived healthy and warm. I immediately put them in a bowl of water, and they were active right away and also ate hatchlings pellet food. 2 weeks later the turtles are still very active and eating. They are wonderful, color on them is very bright and very good quality. I definitely recommend ordering from these guys. Customer service is awesome as well! I am more than happy with my new pink belly side necked turtle and I will order again from TTTS soon
Ordered a one year old femalealbino Sulcata tortoises in july 2017 its now February 2018, the tortoise came highly recommended and for good reason. Shes quite the character, came in excellent health and has maintained that health couldn’t be happier with her and would highly recommend thealbino Sulcata tortoises as a recommendedalbino Sulcata tortoises to anyone considering buying a baby tortoise for sale. The customer service is the best in the reptile business from my experience these guys are great.
Was looking for a Texas Diamondback terrapin These guys had some. Couple messages back and forth and decided to order. Placed order on a Sunday with Presidents’ Day the next day. Received a phone call that they couldn’t be sent out on the holiday and with bad weather coming they watched for a window that would work. They arrived overnight well insulated box and nice and warm. They are very very active and curious little guys. Couldn’t be happier with choosing to buy from Tortoise town. Thanks again and I recommend them for anyone looking to buy a water turtle for sale!
The instahatch experience from Randy and thetortoiseandturtlesource was top notch. I’ve hatched endangered freshwater turtles before, but had not had the chance to hatch a tortoise before. Randy provided excellent updates during the incubation process, complete with pictures of candling. He also provided in-depth instructions for the few days before hatching through life for the first few months to make sure the care and habitat setup was “dummy-proof”. I would recommend the Tort Stork instahatch experience to anyone looking for a hatchling tortoise.

“After 10 years of raising, keeping, and rescuing tortoises, I decided to venture into breeding them. While researching how to incubate eggs and care for hatchlings, I discovered thetortoiseandturtlesource website. I was intrigued by the idea of buying a tortoise egg to incubate and hatch myself. I saw it as a “hands on” learning experience to prepare me for when my tortoises start breeding and laying eggs. thetortoiseandturtlesource provided me this amazing opportunity, always answering questions along the way, and I am truly grateful for that.”

thetortoiseandturtlesource provides an amazing service. Randy sent me an Insta-Hatch Cherry head egg that was days away from hatching. All I had to do was unbox it and put it in my incubator. Four days later my egg started hatching and Randy (thetortoiseandturtlesource) guided me through the whole process. With thetortoiseandturtlesource you don’t just get a tortoise you get a whole experience! I would definitely recommend it to any one who wants to hatch their own baby.

I am a cautious person who doesn’t like to take risks. When I decided to add to my tortoise family, I started carefully researching breeders. I knew Randy had an excellent reputation as a breeder. I had planned on getting a hatchling from him. I went to his website and I saw that he was shipping eggs. I could not believe it. This was my dream. I never thought it would be possible.
I read everything he had on the website over and over. I told every single person I knew. I asked everyone for advice. They all thought I was crazy. Not possible. I thought about it for months. I just could not pass up this chance. No more watching YouTube videos. I could watch my very own tortoise hatch.
I contacted him and he answered so many questions. Even though everything I needed to know was on his website. Pictures and videos for every step including setting up your incubator, enclosure, diet, lighting etc. Complete egg and hatchling care. That did not stop me from emailing, calling, texting with a million more questions. He had the patience of a saint and always replied immediately.
When my egg was close to hatching, Randy called to check up on both of us. I was a nervous wreck. Randy had a “feeling” and asked me to check the egg. I could not believe it! There was a tiny leg sticking out of the egg. My little Russian tortoise was early and he busted through that egg like a champ. I was crying like an idiot. Jumping up and down like a child. I was so happy. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
I cannot say enough positive things about Randy and TortStork. No other breeder has had the desire and innovation to offer this experience. It was amazing. My Russian tortoise is amazing. Perfect in every way. Hatchlings are special little creatures on their own. But I saw mine break out of his egg. It is incredible how they are stuffed into that tiny shell. I saw his yolk sac. I saw his shell bent from growing inside the egg. I saw it smooth out by the next day and the little hole for the yolk sac close up. I saw him take his first bite of food. His first drink of water. It was better than I ever imagined.! I can’t wait to do it all over again. Thank you, thetortoiseandturtlesource, you freaking made my dream a reality!
thetortoiseandturtlesource is the jam-diggity! Randy is just awesome. He stayed in constant contact keeping us updated with photos and updates from the egg stage, the day it hatched, and growth updates all the way through to its arrival day. We received our perfect little 27 day-old cherry-head hatchling safe and sound all the way in Colorado this January. Happy and healthy! We were skeptical about shipping such a small tortoise to Colorado in January, but the owner Randy really knows what he’s doing. We planned together, and he timed the shipping with the weather perfectly, and it shipped in about 13 hours. Even after seeing many photos, we were blown away with how tiny it was! SO cute! He has continuted to be a resourse to us, and is generous with his wealth of knowledge on all things toroise, and is very patient dealing with all of my #overconcernednewtortoisedaddy questions. The best surprise was that part of our purchase gets donated in my name to help save endangered turtles! It doesn’t get any better than that.
