Our Tyrion is now 4 years old and about 45 lbs. A friend of a friend recently approached us and asked if we would be interested in providing a home for their 20-something-year-old male who is about 65 lbs (no idea why our Tyrion is growing so much faster). We had a test run today -- putting...

Our Tyrion is almost a year old now (within a month or so according to the breeder). I'm posting some photos below. Appreciate input on his development -- is he about the right size, shape, etc. Also, it may be too early to tell, but if you have thoughts about whether Tyrion is boy/girl, I'm...

I've been following this forum for several weeks before, and now after we obtained our new baby sulcata. Lots of good information. I can't believe how obsessed with this little guy I have become. He turned himself over a couple of times during his first few days with us (we have since gotten...
