sulcatas cant remember
kinixys didnt see a price
pancakes didnt see them just heard they were there
tgb E40+
thh E40+

think thats it all the ones i saw had paperwork and were cb in germany most of the stands had photos of adults and enclosures
there were also different terrapin species most of which i didnt have a clue what they were but they started at around E10 and went up in price the bigger the animal
my overall impretion was quite good i did expect to see alot of imports and some dodgy torts but it was quite the opposit

[boomslang40]

aha! aw you shoulda shouted my name at me! lol

just read the first post and realised it applies to me!

I bought a c.b. leopard tortoise, about 2 inches in length for 80 euros.

He's being kept in a 3'x2'x2' vivarium with full spectrum UV lighting and a spotlight at one end, being fed on hay and a mixture of greens, herbs and a small amount of fruit now and then, with nutrabol (d.w. not too much nutrabol!) just ordered a couple of seed mixes too from shelled warriors, and shall be getting their high fibre seed mix too!
