I am not sure any of you will remember me and my family, but I needed to post this anyway. In 2013, I joined your wonderful site and was finally united with my precious and long awaited, second son (Sulcata yearling) Méraddyn. I thoroughly enjoyed regaling everyone with pictures of our first...

Hey everyone! I know it has been a while since I have been on here (last year in college is CRAZY!) Anyhow, I have been trying to think of great gifts to get my sully, Méraddyn for Christmas. Since we regard Méraddyn as one of our children-it is a must that there are gifts that she/he can...

Hi everyone! I am beginning to work out the details of implementing a safe travel enclosure of sorts for my Méraddyn in my vehicle :) I have a full size conversion van that has plenty of room and am thinking of removing one of the captain's chairs (maybe 2) to build Méraddyn a safe and...

I think it is of the hibiscus family but not sure :/ Méraddyn sure likes it, but I want to make sure it is ok to let him have :) [hr] according to the GOOGLE it is a rose of Sharon ? So my next question is~ why do some call hibiscus also rose of Sharon if the flowers look so different? I have...

OK, I have had about enough of the conflicting info on edible grasses for tortoises >:( Could anyone who owns a sulcata please give me some info on lawn grasses?? Especially those found on my non-chemically treated property in Kentucky? Sorry for the upset in my tone, I spent all night...

OH MY!! I can't believe it!! Due to unforeseen circumstances, our long awaited family member will be here on Tuesday (at least that is what I am told :) ) Almost TWO months early!!!! I am so excited that I am shaking and barely holding back the tears of sheer joy!! Our 'baby' will be...

Hi! I have been curious...I know that Sulcatas are the 3rd largest tort in the world, but what is the next largest? Is there a list of tort species ordered by adult size from largest to smallest that I could find? Curious minds :cool:

Ok, so this may be an odd question, but here goes... When a sully gets to its average large size, will it have difficulty being able to fit through standard doorways of a house? Very curious :) Thanks! :tort: :tort:

Hello! Would anyone of you mind giving me some names of some online reputable breeder/dealers for tortoises? As I put in my introductions this past weekend...I am looking to get a baby sulcata within 2 months and I wanted to know who you all thought were really good breeders that have a...

Hi! I have never joined a forum before, so I hope I don't get this all wrong :/ I am very excited to join TFO though! I have adored tortoises and turtles since I was a small child. I am also a major animal lover :) In my life I have been the proud Momma to the following species: cats, dogs...
