 CB Russian Torts?

I work at a pet store, and we are pulling our hair out trying to find some good quality, healthy, captive bred tortoises, particularly Russian (and other species that stay moderately small compared to, say, a Sulcata). We have found some wild caught ones, but they are (I believe), soon to be on the endangered species list and we’d rather not support taking them from the wild anyway. We don’t like to go for larger species because people tend to buy them as babies and bring them back or dump them outside when they are "too big", no matter how many care sheets, warnings, lifetime guarantees, etc. they get.

We found a bunch on LLL that are CB, but their Russians are not. Any ideas? Wholesale prices would be ideal...

no clue dragongirl, however i would suggest finding a breeder, then your EXTREMELY gunna be 100% with healthy, good young captive bred tortoises.

That goes for all tortoises by the way...just search for breeders around your area.
