Hi all,
Due to medical issues in my family I am going to be taking a semester or two off of school to go home. It will be extremely difficult to care for my 3 year old sulcata, Dane, so I want to give him to somebody who can give him a better life than I can give him during this very...
Hi Guys! It's been forever since I've posted on these forums. Dane is doing well! He spent May-September in a large outdoor enclosure pretty much 24/7 unless it was raining hard or hailing (or cold). He grew so much! Last month we celebrated his one year with us. He even had is own tortoise...

Dane has not stopped moving around the place since...

I have been hanging out on the forums for a few weeks now just reading, not posting. Today I will change that!
