Sticky Situation Selling Giant Asian Softshell..Suggestions?

Posted by Steve B. on March 22, 2002 at 11:40:36:

Hi,
I have 2 baby Giant Asian Softshells,Pelochelys Cantori. I bought 2, nearly 9 months ago, in case I lost one. Both are robust and thriving and I'm now confident enough to sell one.My problem is, I can only sell this turtle to someone experienced or willing to set it up right. I don't want to put it on general classifieds and then refuse some one. These animals can get to 4 feet long. I'll have room for one, but thats all. I'm looking for someone committed, as I would if I were selling a crocodilian, or an Aldabra. Am I unrealistic? Is there a classified that only reaches "hard core" turtle people? I don't mind taking a loss on this turtle, but they have the coolest little bulldog faces in the world and I can't let anything bad happen to this thing!
Thanks for any and all suggestion!
Steve B.
