Occasionally, the BCC will offer captive hatched surplus animals for adoption & sale to experienced turtle and tortoise keepers.
The BCC is a non-for profit, Non-Governmental Organization.
100% of the income generated from the sale of these animals will go towards in-range BCC projects to support conservation efforts for turtles and tortoises in the wild. Purchasing captive hatched animals from the BCC will not only support in range conservation initiatives, but also reduce the pressure of wild caught animals.

As an AZA accredited institution, we are required to have all interested parties to begin the sale/adoption process.
