Having to put up for adoption because of financial circumstances and lack of room in living space. Looking for experienced turtle owners or reptile keepers, they need the absolute best! I’m perfectly willing to separate the two as they are already housed separately and will need their own habitats.

Asbo is very curious and can be handled quite easily though will give a nip if you give him the oppurtunity! Durka is very similar and loves to explore his habitat, so tough equipment is a must!

Also willing to offer large tank complete with housing/fitting for UV bulb (bulb included but will need replacing soon). Also a separate fitting for basking lamp (not included). Please note, the tank is only suitable for ONE turtle as they are both of an age now where they are demonstrating aggressive and territorial behaviour and would be a danger to each other or other animals if housed together.

Ideally the turtles need to have habitats already available as my other turtles will be giving up their larger tank to be rehomed in the tanks currently occupied by Asbo and Durka.
