I have a juvenile Sulcata tortoise ready for adoption! This little one has been in my care for around 9 months. Previous owner claimed s/he was around 2 years old at that time, but s/he was barely larger than a fresh hatchling when I got him thanks to poor husbandry & diet. Naturally, s/he's...

I always worry about foundlings, for two reasons: 1, what if someone was looking for him? And 2, if the person just found it and knows nothing about them, how will they know to screen homes? Hoping someone in the LA area can help this little one out...

So, last winter, one of my Fire skinks developed a bulge at the base of its tail. It was one of my breeding pair, so I thought, Great! This must be the male! .. Until I caught them in action a couple times, with my well-endowed "male" on bottom. So maybe not hemipenes. Today, she got to make...

So I recently took in 2 very, very stunted little Sulcata tortoises. (Actually, 3 of them--but one, whose shell was partially caved in, died within about 24 hrs.) Obvious issues are MBD and very underweight.. They weighed 53 and 65 grams on arrival, at allegedly 2 years old. We're working on the...
