I looked at a 55 today, but the lady kinda wanted me to take the two tortoises along with it...she would have let everything go for $25 but it didn't quite meet my needs and I am too busy for taking on more responsibility

Tank and black metal stand needs some cleaning, no top, one striplight but not sure if working. The lady has no idea how to properly care for the tortoises so please help them out (she didn't even know to plug in the heating pad stuck to the underside of the tank. Her name is Debbie and you can reach her at 773.463.3528. Help these poor creatures by taking them off her hands.
 
Sorry, I am not knowledgable enough to be able to answer...but I think I have seen them before...they aren't extraordianry...look pretty much like one that you could find anywhere in th eastern US. One of the shells is a bit messed up. I think they need some calcium supplement and proper full spectrum lighting.
 
so more like box turtles than an actual tortoise? Tortoise's cost $100's usually because they live a human lifetime if well kept.
 
yeah that looks like an 3 toed box turtle. they are actually turtles and not tortoises although they are more similar to the tortoise. Um where is the lady located I love reptiles and I have a bearded dragon and 3 iguanas and also a Desert tortoise. I wud love those guys. Can you give me anymore information? Will she ship?
