Captive bred turtles and tortoises for sale
NWT allows breeding very sparingly (for more information see the FAQs). Hatchlings are not sold until they are at least one year old. Shipping, when temperatures allow, is available in the continental U.S. Ice packs/heat packs will not be used due their unreliability to maintain a constant temperature.
If you are interested in purchasing from NWT use the contact button. A conversation about proper care will take place prior to any sales. The goal is to find dedicated owners that will cherish their new pet for life.
All turtles and tortoises are intended for educational and scientific purposes.

Placing deposits to hold an animal:
It’s common to place a deposit on a specific animal to wait for warm weather for shipping or other reasons. In this case the following guidelines apply:
- A non-refundable 50% deposit must be made. If the adopter changes their mind for any reason the deposit is forfeited. If the animal dies or is injured the buyer will have a choice of a replacement animal if one is available and agreed upon. If one is not available or agreed upon the buyer may choose a refund or keep the deposit on file to choose from the next available group.
Policies:
- Follow-up care advice and information is always free. Northwest Tortoise strives to provide correct information to anyone interested in keeping their tortoises happy and healthy!
- Tortoises are not sold until they are at least a year old. Hatchling tortoises are very fragile and not ready to be shipped or deal with the stresses of a new home.
- Northwest Tortoise reserves and exercises the right to refuse the sale of a tortoise. An extensive conversation about care, housing and diet will take place. New tortoise owners willing to learn are welcome!
