So, this is REALLY obscure, but you know 'those sulcata's at that zoo'? Hmm, not much too go on. You know those sulcata's at that zoo and the female layed 4o+eggs and it was all over the new but now I can't find the article? Does anyone have or know what zoo that was? Because the more I think about it, the more I'm positive they didn't look like sulcata's and some other larger tort... and I can't find the article. Or the picture that goes with the article. I just want confirmation that it's either a sulcata or a different tort!

Thank you!! I just couldn't find that :mad::D
Now, doe that look like a sulcata to you? I think the edges of the shell are far too round...
I never had a sulcata, so That's what it seems to be... I just searched: "sulcata lays more that 40 eggs in zoo" and I found it :D

They're definitely sulcatas, really healthy looking ones too.

Okay... I just thought they are very dark, too, like Aldabras. Maybe it's just the lighting??
