I'm ready to buy a new Sulcata hatchling. Does anyone know of a breeder looking to sell near Los Angeles? I need a breeder who knows about the humidity for hatchlings thing and has kept them humid since hatching. I found a really nice guy in the Simi-Valley area, but his are a few weeks old, on rabbit pellets and normal room humidity. I don't mind waiting a few weeks if someone has got eggs due to hatch.

I'm not sure where she lives, but we had a young lady here on the forum a couple months ago who was raising sulcatas, including some albino babies. I'll do a search and see if I can remember her user name.

I have never bought from this breeder, but I have never heard anything bad about them either. They have been around for awhile and have put a lot of time & money into their tortoises. And over the years their tortoises (pictures I have seen) have appeared better for it. I would consider them.

Tyler Stewart sells them. I just bought Ruby from him. He's in Las Vegas. Here's his address.

Thanks kbaker. I've e-mailed these guys. They are pretty close to me, so hopefully this will work out. I'll post for everyone either way.

I e-mailed these guys (that's the only contact info on the site) and haven't heard back. Anybody know if they are still in business? Anyone got a phone number?

They do place ads on kingsnake posted by Linda. I thought I saw one last week, but I could not find anything this morning. I am sure they are still in business. Their website has been worked on in the last couple of weeks. It could be a computer problem or a personal issue that came up...who knows?
