    I can not get over having to surrender my Mali 🇲🇱. Thank you for the last 9 years, you helped me give her the best years so far.

    Thank you, I moved us down to Green Valley 2 years ago. My biggest worry, she likes people, she liked her shell brushed with corn broom, feet rubbed. I honestly thought I could keep her till “till death do we part”.

    I don’t know how to stop making myself sick. Having to surrender Mali , she’s always been alone, I believe they are solitary beings. My daughter really showed me that Mali 🇲🇱 needs more room, she’s not ever brumated or anything like that. Shes about 60 pounds, she is at the top of what I...

    Craigslist rescue, Dozer

    No, we (lots of us) just love these guys. I don’t like a lot of the treatment I hear about torts. I’ve had my Mali 🇲🇱 since 2018. She was found in the gas fields in South Dakota. She was about 40 lbs vs now she’s 65 lbs

    The importance of DEEP shade

    Mali 🇲🇱 is a fun and healthy Sulcatta. I’ve had her for 5 years, we lived in Minnesota for most of that time. Moved to Tucson last fall, full time. She seems to like it here. She’s come down here every winter with me and my two Jack Russell’s. Now it’s been hot down here. 41+ days of tripl...

    Okay, Mali 🇲🇱 is a beautiful large Sulcatta. She’s lived with myself and 1 little rescue. I know some ideas are they are solitary animals,

    I need to find a new home for my lady Sulcatta, I forgot how old I was when I rescued her. My hesitation is, she’s a darling tortoise, I am afraid someone will want her to breed, or I don’t want her to be yelled at. Am I just SOL, or can I get her a proper home ? Help, please

    I seem to be in the same boat as you !!! I got my Sulcatta, Mali 🇲🇱 9 years ago. i have been sad as I’m not sure where she should be. I moved to Green Valley AZ 4 years ago. Pretty sure she’s happy, she’ll follow me around anywhere I’m 68, and never thought I would ever have one. I...

    Our Baby Tortoise Died

    I’m so sorry for your child’s loss. I was inconsolable when my little Emi died. I was hoping that breeders were being more careful, since my debacle, but sadly I still hear about these hatchlings succumbing to austwikia My first tortoise, she (no i don’t know 😂) was a little baby, and at...

    I Wish Less People Would Not Be Cruel To The Sweet , Lovely Creatures Latey!!!!

    Am I the only one that reads this, you want people to take classes ? We don’t make people take classes to have children !! I love my Mali, I enjoy keeping up for her. I raised my daughter, one day at a time 😂, by the seat of my pants. Although I had great parents, so I did have lessons.

    Can 60 pound Sulcatta tortoise stay outside full time ?

    Mali is about 60 pounds, since the weather is perfect for her, I’d like to put her hide out side. I’ll put in the shade. She’s been going out for the day. It’s not above 100. She only lays in the shade this year. Any one know if she has shade, and her hide is outside, is that okay ?
