Hello do you know where she got them from? country wise?
It is illegal to smuggle them in, and to sell them on without paper work. I have sent you a pm.

if you can get some pictures we can id on species, also i presume if the tortoise trust or shelled warriors pick it up to be rehomed(if thats what u want?) they'd need to know the species.
