    Chose to stay out at night

    I hear you. And I can tell from the picture it does look like that. It’s actually typically packed up more around the edges with mulch and rocks and has a step like rock in the inside. I was in the middle of working on his home while the photo was grabbed showing my mom the snow.. obviously not...

    I’m assuming I’m going to be put down here but I have to ask. Does anyone here have a Sulcata sharing a home / yard with a rabbit ? I know they live safely alone but I’ve also seen photos of bunnies with tortoises living together. My kids and I would love another pet and our Chello ( 7 year old...

    Chose to stay out at night

    Thanks all. I will not allow him to do this again. Still curious why he would- but who knows. His home has a doggie door so the warmest spot is 87 to 90. The closer he is to the flaps of the door, the cooler it is. I can close him in if needed. Pictured is his hut ( which is buried and...

    A few questions regarding breathing sounds

    Monty Chello is my 4.5 year old Sulcata.. sweetest guy ever. After owning him for four months..I hear some breathing sounds and I can see his head move when he breathes off and on. It seems a bit labored sometimes so I’m trying to diagnose a reason. I hear temp and humidity is usually the...
