I'm moving into college housing on January 4th so Veronica has to find a new home.

Veronica is a one year-old male turtle (pretty sure she's actually a male anyway). V is about 3 and half to four inches shell-wise.

I'm looking to find him a home in the Tennessee/Georgia area. I would make the drive to your home to bring him (I'm in the Fort Oglethorpe, GA/Chattanooga, TN area). Along with the turtle, you have the option of having a 30 gallon tank, a 30 to 50 gallon Whisper filter, brand new turtle dock (just replaced the first one), plants, rocks, pellets, shrimp, and small critter carrier for when a turtle needs to be moved.

Veronica and etc. will be totally free. I just need to find V a good home with someone who has experience taking care of RES. V is in really good health and spirits. Since I won't be able to take him with me to school, I want to be able to find someone to take as good care of him as I have this past year.

If you're interested or have any questions you can contact me at brittany.shope@gmail.com .

OMG, that turtle is adorable. I'm sorry I live in Michigan, not close enough for you.

Maybe you could keep her at home for a year or two until you move off campus?
It looks like you've taken wonderful care of him/her and it'd be sad to see you have to give her up for two years when you could keep her happy for the next 20.

You could always ship the turtle to those people that want it. Call the shipping company and make arrangements in advance, it may cost a lot ,but it's worth it.
