A discussion group for all tortoise related subjects, from starting out with a new tortoise to other more controversial topics such as the trade in wild caught tortoises etc. All welcome whatever level of experience. Off topic posts are fine but please mark as OT so that anyone preferring not to read them can differentiate easily. Constructive debate is always welcome but personal attacks will be removed.
Unfortunately membership now has to be approved, this is purely as a result of a large amount of SPAM getting past the filters. New members are moderated until the first post, when moderation is removed, for the same reason.
TO ATTEMPT TO DISSUADE SALES FROM PET SHOPS, GARDEN CENTRES ETC, WE NOW HAVE A BREEDERS LIST IN THE DATABASE SECTION. ALL BREEDERS ARE WELL KNOWN TO VARIOUS DISCUSSION GROUPS AND BUYERS CAN BE ASSURED THAT NO DEALINGS OR IMPORTATION HAVE TAKEN PLACE FROM THESE PEOPLE. Adverts for and links to dealers will be removed.
