🐢 BABY LEOPARD TORTOISES AVAILABLE 🐢
I have a beautiful group of 8 baby Leopard tortoises available, thriving and ready to begin their next adventure with their new families.
I’m a licensed hobby breeder, and my family has over 20 years of experience keeping and breeding tortoises. Every baby has been raised in my home with plenty of care and attention, resulting in healthy, well-started little tortoises.
Each tortoise comes with:
✔ Birth certificate
✔ Lifetime advice and support
✔ Healthy, well-started baby raised in a caring home
🐢 About Leopard Tortoises
Leopard tortoises are a beautiful African species, easily recognised by the stunning markings on their shells. As they grow, each tortoise develops its own unique pattern.
They are a larger species and need plenty of space as adults, so please consider their long-term housing requirements before purchasing. With the correct care, Leopard tortoises can live for many decades, making them a true lifelong commitment.
Unlike some Mediterranean species, Leopard tortoises do not hibernate, so they require suitable heating and UVB throughout the year.
🏠 Set-Up
For baby Leopard tortoises, I recommend a warm, appropriately humid setup with the correct heating and UVB lighting. I’d also recommend purchasing a mister for £30 from amazon which I can send you a link to.
Vivariums are appropriate for this species and can make maintaining the required temperatures and humidity easier, particularly while they are young.
I can also provide a complete starter setup if required.

For extra photos or a quick chat, message me directly on WhatsApp:
These babies were incubated at a mixed temperature, so their sex cannot be reliably determined while they are young.
If you have any questions or would simply like to chat about Leopard tortoises and their care, feel free to send me a message- I’m always happy to help.
