Those $50 hatchlings are more than likely sulcatas, they grow to enormous size and cost alot of money to feed when they have attained adult size, which won't take that long. The proper setup for a small tortoise usually costs over $200 not to mention vet bills and food. Don't think you can just dump them when they get big, there is already more supply than demand, and it won't change for a long long time.
