Hi All, My 65lb Sulcata Sheldon was taken from us almost two weeks ago. After 8 days we were able to get him back. It was very late (almost 10pm) when we got him back-the next morning I went out to his pen to check on him and noticed wheezing and bubbling nose. I took him that day to the herp...

I looked out my window the other day and found Sheldon assaulting Mr. Craftsman....usually he is friendly with the garden hoses....apparently they said no.....so.......

Hi, Sheldon is adapting to his indoor enclosure for the winter. He is being very stuborn (surprise ;)) about drinking water when in his enclosure. He is still able to go outside for a couple hours each afternoon and his water bowl shows that he is drinking (thanks to the dirt accumulations that...

Hi, I am a little concerned about my sulcata's shell. He has had some visible lines that at first I thought were cracks. I wasn't sure how he would have gotten them; but then they started to fill in. I now think that they are growth lines. My main concern is that last night when I was...

Hi All, We just had Sheldon's winter enclosure built and delivered. It is 8' x 7'. It has two 2' overhangs and two lights. One for basking and then a CHE for night time. I had asked for one of the overhangs to have a front panel and that didn't happen-so we hang a blanket over it and Sheldon is...

Hi All, We adopted a 8 week old kitten yesterday afternoon. We brought her home and introduced her to our small dog Oscar.....who did what cat and dogs do. Then it was onto introducing her to Sheldon. He......was less than thrilled I would say. Last night I snuck down to the garage to his...

My hubby and I were out digging up our potatoes this afternoon and Sheldon our Sulcata was pacing up and down the rows very nervously. After about twenty minutes he started grunting and then before I knew it my 5 yr old daughter was asking me what was wrong with Sheldon. I looked down and there...

Hi, We have owned our Sulcata Sheldon now for almost three weeks. He is already growing and gaining weight! Yeah! Today we were finally able to locate 100% organic grass hay for his winter enclosure which is currently being built. He came running the minute he saw where the bales were placed...

Hi All, I have had my sully for one week today and I think that he is adjusting pretty well. He is 10 yrs and 60 lbs. He was outside exploring today in the back yard and my daughter came inside to tell me that Sheldon was in the garden. We have 50 ft raised bed gardens. He finally figured out...

Hi All, I have a weird question-we just brought home our big guy (60lbs) on Sunday and he currently has a blue swimming pool as a water bowl. It is sunk into the ground and I have placed rocks and bricks for him to be able to get out of the pool. I showed him the pool with the water in it...

Hi, I wanted to share some pics of our new Sulcata. We adopted him from CoRHS in CO today. They are guessing that he is ~10 years old. Well over 55 pounds and had a fantastic personality. The minute we walked into his outside enclosure he was running up to my hubby and I wanting us to pay...

Hi, I am trying to figure out what strength of lighting that I need to get for a 5 yr old sulcata? He will be inside throughout the winter in an enclosure that will be approx 5ft x 6ft. I know that he will need heat and UVB? Help would be much appreciated.
