Selling my entire sulcata tortoise breeding operation — established in 2020, fully built out, and ready to hand off to the right buyer. Asking $69,500. Located in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana. Will ship anywhere — the entire operation loads onto a flatbed truck.
------------------------------------------------------------
THE ANIMALS — 28 Total (4 males, 24 females)
------------------------------------------------------------
GROUP 1 — Het Ivory Producers
Merlin (ivory male, 22") has been bred exclusively with 7 females (15"–23"). Every animal he has produced is 100% het for ivory. The females have never been bred with any other male. This is a verified, clean het ivory line — buyers know what that means.
GROUP 2 — XXL Animals
Mitch (male, 34") with 7 females ranging 19"–24".
GROUP 3 — XL Animals
Goliath (male, 29") with 6 females ranging 19"–24".
GROUP 4 — Standard Size
Buddy (male, 23") with 4 females ranging 14"–23".
------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT'S INCLUDED
------------------------------------------------------------
- 40-foot insulated shipping container, professionally fabricated into 4 separate living quarters. Humidity controlled, propane heated, electric lamps, full camera system, rubber horse mat flooring throughout for easy cleanup and shell protection. This is the most professional sulcata setup you will find.
- All exterior fencing and yard areas (configured for 1/4 acre)
- Exterior hides and water bowls
- Large incubator — holds hundreds of eggs
- Hatchling brooder with UVB lighting and heat — holds hundreds of hatchlings
- sulcatas.com domain and website
- All shipping supplies on hand
------------------------------------------------------------
LOGISTICS
------------------------------------------------------------
The entire operation — container, equipment, and animals — can be loaded onto a standard flatbed and transported anywhere in the country. Sale and pickup in Lafayette Parish, Louisiana. Buyer handles transport coordination and cost.
------------------------------------------------------------
WHY SELLING
------------------------------------------------------------
Other business interests have taken my time over the past few years. The animals are healthy. Eggs have not been harvested recently — there is real upside here for an active owner. Holding costs are extremely low — these animals eat grass, hay, and occasional treats. This works as a hands-on business or a passive/retirement income stream.
------------------------------------------------------------
TERMS
------------------------------------------------------------
Asking $69,500. Cash preferred. Seller financing considered for qualified buyers with substantial down payment. Serious inquiries only — please PM with questions. No wholesalers.
