I know this tends to be a tiring subject and I believe I have correctly sexed them both as females. (The Boulder was posted here last year but the forum was unsure exactly but leaned towards female) So Bowser is around 12 inches in length and around 4 and a half years old and The Boulder is 10...

Alright so I am getting ready to replace Zelda's old 30 gallon tank. (She grew faster than I expected) I am planning on getting one of the fancy front opening exo terra natural terrariums but I am not sure which one to get. She isn't all that active unless I take her out so I was leaning towards...

So winter is approaching and I don't think Bowser will be able to handle another winter spending a good chunk of his time in his old tortoise table. Last year he spent a good amount of time scratching at the walls. I am planning the house and right now I have a few ideas for what I would like...

Someone in my little city area of Rio Linda/ Elverta lost their Sulcata. Anyone in the area hears about someone trying to sell it please contact the poster of the ad. http://sacramento.craigslist.org/wan/4025177357.html

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/for/4024145654.html Anyone able to take him and give him a good home, I typed in Sulcata in Sacramento and saw this ad. I hoped someone here would be able to get him and give him better than a 20 gallon tank with dry substrate and hide that is actually on the ground

It's that time again. Sacramento will be having the I think 13 th annual reptile expo Sept 28th and 29th at the convention center. http://upscalereptiles.com/2011/ I plan to be there the 29th when they open. I highly recommend showing up when it starts because it gets crowded fast. Great deals...

Hello TFO I was called in to the local vet today because they thought they found bowser. I have had him back for 3 weeks now and I knew it wasn't him but the local vet in my small town had no idea what kind of turtle or tortoise they had and asked for my help. So I think it is a box turtle but I...

Alright it is late at night and I have my torts inside in the very wet substrate and the CHE that I bought keeps blowing the circuit breaker. I have used this same plug previously with a heat bulb and heating rock without any problems(Along with the UVB tube) But currently one CHE is using more...

So I went and bought a CHE from the pet expo today and am rather sad to have read on the box that I need an exo-terra wire light fixture. I am using flukers dome currently with the scrolling wheel, and I also have on that has just the on and off button. I did find one article during my searches...

So hibiscus flowers, where do you guys get them. I see so many things that people feed their torts but I have no clue how to order them or what stores may cary then in their organic section Another one of those questions is the prickly pear(or the flowers on the paddle cactus)are we able to feed...

I was elated today to have received a call from a woman who claims her friend has my tortoise. I wasted no time in getting in my car and was there within 1 minute of receiving the address(Thankfully they were close) She apparently saw one of my fliers at the local market and knew that it was the...

I have never used it before so I want to make sure this is the product many or more than a few of my fellow members are feeding their torts. http://www.mazuri.com/mazuritortoisediet.aspx I don't want to buy the wrong thing, especially if it will hurt my tort.

This is the boulder and I was hoping you could tell me his her sex

I live in Sacramento,CA and I thought I would let others in the area know that upscale reptiles is hosting their annual reptile expo at the Sacramento Convention center September 29th and 30th. They are bringing back the venomous display again this year if you missed it next year. If you want...

So its been two weeks roughly since Bowser was taken from me and I have contemplated on replacing his absence in a year or so. The reasoning behind this is that The Boulder is moving around almost 5x more often than he was before, I rarely see him sitting in a corner or in the burrow that Bowser...

I am just curious as to how many of us newer(ish) members besides me feel like they found this haven too late? The wealth of knowledge this place houses is fantastic and as a first time sulcata owner who looked used so many different guides/pieces of advice from so many sources and in the end...

So my tortoise table is 3'6" by 4' 6" feet and is fully covered with a UVB tube over the top. Currently my tort(s)(Missing one currently. =[) are grazing outside which they will stay until the temps here drop too low which might be around next month or two. Now when I put them back into their...

Hello tortoise forum, I am sad to ask of this but if anyone in the sacramento are hears about a found or the shady procuring of a young sulcata tortoise (about 2-3pounds) please email me at [email protected] the oldest of my two sulcatas was recently taken (unless he can scale double his...

I have two Sulcatas that are a couple years old but not all that big in size yet and I have plans to keep them outside this year for Spring and summer especially but am running into the obstacle of how to keep them warm. I am taking the advice of making sure it is humid so I want to use a mister...

http://sulcatafood.com/Store.html Anyone bought their seed mix that can comment on it? I just bought it the other day for the outside pen I plan to build and wanted an idea of what I got. If anyone has a different preferred seed mix please link it. I am curious about the Elephant grass...
