"Mining turtle feces would be time consuming and expensive too - doesn't make it any more valuable though." Particularly given that turtles and tortoises typically eat their poop, accounting for its scarcity and the paucity of profitable turtle feces mining operations: I just found my sulcata eating its own poop! Help! Sulcata Station's response: Well, believe it or not, this is very typical of sulcata tortoises and nothing to be concerned about. All tortoises will do this to some extent. So while it seems gross and disgusting, it's really just an instinct that helps the tortoises survive in the wild. Sulcata in particular are notorious for doing this since they evolved in a relatively food-poor environment, and coprophagia (poop-eating) allowed them to obtain certain nutrients and vitamins that may not have been available otherwise. sulcata-station.org
