I moved to a new rental home in Destin, FL and the yard has quite a few weeds. I just want to make sure they are safe before I send Squirtle out there to graze. Thank you in advance! Plant 1: I believe this is Florida Pusley, if it is, is this okay for a Sulcata to eat? Haven't seen much info on...

I just got my new Sulcata in the mail from AZSulcata! He came in immaculate shape, and he is so small. I am very excited. Without further ado, pictures: Thanks again AZSulcata.

This is a pretty sad story, so I warn you about reading further. So I moved back in with my parents, they have 3 dogs. I brought Blastoise (8mo Sulcata) home and they were apathetic towards him. They would look and sorta smell him, but go on their merry ways. Well I was still cautious, so for...

So, my sulcata (9 months and ~4.5in) has outgrown his indoor enclosure, even with his little balcony. I bought this kiddie pool and filled it with topsoil, (not potting, no chemicals were used) and placed some stuff for him. My question is, with him living outside, he will only get sun from...

Just recently my Sulcata has been having floaters. I was wondering if this is a bad or good sign or if it doesn't matter. I haven't changed anything except a higher level of water for soaks, any body have any input? Thanks!

My shining star! 7mo Sulcata

My sulcata ate a piece of lime, and I was wondering if it was okay. He didn't eat much, it was actually really cute, he took a bite, then another, then pulled away fast and shook his head. Like he tasted the sour of it. It was the first time, and it was an accident that he even got some. The...

This is my 6mo Sulcata still haven't decided a name, but I call him B a lot. These are from a couple days after Christmas.

I was wondering if a Sulcata can eat pineapple leaves? Just curious before I throw it out.

So I heard that a slanting and not rounding rear end is signs of MBD. I got my Sulcata when he was a couple weeks old and I remember him looking like this. Hes about 4 months old now. Heres some pics: and

I keep my 4mo sulcata inside and recently it texas its gotten nice enough to go outside. He really likes to munch on dead dry leaves and dead brown grass. Sometimes even twigs. Is this okay for them?

Amidst the studying for finals I had to take a break and came here. I was just curious of what everyone on the Forums majored in in school. Or whether you just got a job and stuck to it? For me, I went to college right after highschool, and currently a senior majoring in Biology with a...

I was wondering where my sulcata's water bowl should be? Its on the cold side now and he rarely goes in it. Should I put it closer to warm side to keep it warm? Where do you have your water located?

I was wondering what the night time temperature for my little 4 month Sulcata should be? I am a poor college kid so the place stays at about 68 all the time. His enclosure is 80 on the cool side during the day and 106 directly under the basking light. But at night it drops to 68 sometimes lower...

So my 2mo sulcata (I don't have a name yet, its so hard to decide) finally started semi-grazing. This might not sound like a big deal but for me it is. I live in an apartment where I feed him spring mix with optunia. I bring him outside for UV. I live in Texas so its still warm. Well when...

It is a single leaf that looks like a lily pad. It is one stem and one leaf. Attached is a picture. I live in San Antonio, Texas. I also want to know if it is okay to eat. I believe it could be Dichondra carolinensis or Carolina ponysfoot but I have no idea. here is the link for it...

So I just got coco coir as a substrate, and... my sulcata is always dirty, always has the coco coir on him. He walks into his food and water and gets everything dirty. Is there anyway around this? or is it a tough part of having coco coir as substrate? also he eats it, is that okay? (when...

Ive visited a couple mom and pop pet stores and from one bought my sulcata. One had them on sheets of news paper covered in rabbit pellets and timothy hay, the other on reptile sand. I have used both as substrates (i've only had him 3 weeks) I was wondering if I should get a better...

I just purchased a Sulcata that I had been wanting for awhile. I am a new tortoise owner. I did my research so I have a small knowledge of how to raise him. He is doing great and I am excited to be part of the forum. I'm sure I will be back with any further questions. Steven
