: Ok, I want a pet thats going to last with me! I want a tortoise. And I want to start up a breeding program, I know that tortoises dont reach maturity till like 15 years or something like that! That should show you that Iam not only in it for the money but for the love! I wanted to get two pairs of something I definately want two Sulcuta's but what other kind of species that is relatively cheap doesnt have many breeding programs established that will be fun to work with?Many thanks Mike

There are already too many Sulcatas, they breed easily, have lots of eggs, but there are really few places in the US that they do well in.

I'd suggest finding the less common tortoises and breed them... Hermann's, Greek, Russians.
