Sulcata Tortoises for adoption

Description

I'm looking to re-home a 7 yo sulcata tortoise. I need to find a new place to live and am having a difficult time finding a place that would be good for her. Her name is Mustang Sally, she weighs 23 lbs and her shell is a little less than 20' from front to back. She is very curious but timid and loves mobbing around our yard all summer eating dandelion and grass. Her diet consists of about 98% grass so feeding is pretty simple; though, she does enjoy some occasional greens and some fruits. I can provide a list of good foods for her. Rehoming fee of $250 Pros: She's a f*cking dinosaur, very cute/cool/jazzradical, big lump with knobs, what else is there to say? Cons: This isn't a pet for everyone. Sulcata tortoises can be very destructive as she can grow to be around 200 lbs, and they are burrowing animals so she could dig a huge hole up to like 10' deep! They can live for like 80 years! Her sh*ts are already bigger than yours- not a joke. Saying all that, the right person will have already researched this animal before reaching out to me about adoption. She will make a great addition to the right person's home!
