This is very important for everyone to see and hear about how destructive they are. Anyone who is interested in housing especially cute little baby sulcatas; beware! Your beautiful flower gardens and lawns will never be the same.
Mary Knobbins/Knobbins is a handful. Your stories tell us just what sulcatas are capable of. It's scary Maggie! And she's only 40 lbs. At full growth they can reach 200-250 or more??? What then? I think we all hope and cringe that we don't run into your troubles. Glad Tortuga Mike is...
And Maggie, she is another one you want to listen to ;); Mary Knobbins, one of her torts :tort:has given her an excellent education! What a character!!!
Hello! There are many here that give advice but the ones to listen to are Tom, Yvonne and Mark. This isn't their first rodeo. They are very active and old timers to this site. They have given lots of advice to MANY people. Please listen to them. A lot of the other folks I see giving you...

It's this simple. This group has yours and your tortoises' best interests at heart. Please listen to them. You won't be disappointed. I know, they helped me with mine along with so many other tortoise parents. We've all come back and thanked them. I think you will too.
"I'm a little piece of tortoise (tin), nobody knows where I have been; 4 more wheels and a running board; I'm a Ford, a Ford, a Ford! Bump, Bump, Rattle, Rattle, Crash, Beep, Beep!!! Or is it Mary Knobbins! ???
Dear Tom and others, You have been a lot of help to me raising my sulcata. I need help understanding anything about the African dwarf frog. A young friend of mine has a fresh water aquarium. He is very excited because his little African dwarf frog has been singing. We imagine he is calling...
What I get are those that out of the kindness of their hearts, adopt these tortoises that have been abused. It's idiots like the ones mentioned above that abuse them, then think, "oh well", don't care; the get rid of them and then folks like Maggie and so many other rescue them; these...
Thank you Tom! I listen to you. But I can't leave out the rest! All of you together make a fantastic team. You all work together for the benefit of beautiful, healthy and strong tortoises! Thank you all!
