new tortoise

[ptbmaniac]

This is kind of a long story so I am going to try and highlight the details.About 2 weeks ago my fiance's father(who is a mailman) asked me if I wanted a box turtle.I said ok as I already have a zoo so more is "usually" welcome.Well the guy that asked him about taking it was not home the next few times he made his stop there.A few days ago I got a call at work asking if I still wanted it.I was told that it came with a "Huge" tank and it was free.I really wanted the tank,but I have always been intrested in turtles so I said I would take it.Well when the thing was delivered to me the "Huge" tank turned out to be a 20 gallon long,and the box turtle was actually some kind of tortoise.From pictures I have seen it really looks like a desert tortoise.I live in a apartment and have no place for an adult tortoise.It could be a russian but it really dosent look like any pictures I have seen.We have been buying carrots and other foods that care sheets said to feed it,but I am not going to be able to afford it when it grows up.It is only about 9 inches long right now.If anyone is intrested in it,i'll give it away.I know they need to be outside in warm weather and I can't provide that.Any other help will be greatly appreciated!!!
