sulcata adult

Hey all!! This is Tony the tortoise. My parents got him for me as a birthday gift almost 18 years ago. I know he has pyramiding, I've been all over this forum and Reddit to know this will be pointed out 😅. When I got him, all the information I was going off of was from books the pet store gave...

Hi everyone, I have a mature sulcata tortoise (not sure of his exact age) and this summer he’s been obsessively trying to find thing to hump. He did start becoming more sexually active last summer but much more so this year…. He’s actually flipped himself over a couple times trying to get on...

I posted a few weeks ago about how to bathe a large sulcata (though I was informed 40lbs isn't large) for the first time. I had taken my sulcata to the vet for what sounded like a stuffy nose and she said I needed to move him indoors, and bathe him everyday. She prescribed him an antibiotic for...

Hello, I have what I have been told is a 10 year old (confirmed) African Sulcata that is only about 7 inches long. I inherited her from a family member who kept her in a 40 gallon tank (she can see out of it, which I have heard is stressful), with a red heat lamp and fed her mostly romaine...

Hey everyone. I hope this isn't too long of a post, but I am in need of moral support. I obtained my Sulcata tortoise August of last year. I consider it sort of a rescue, although I paid for her. I had stopped by my local pet store to say hello to my friend who owns it and saw her living in a...

Hi, this is the poo of my female sulcata. She was supposed to lay around January but hasn’t showed any signs and is spending a lot of time in the water. Do you think this is egg yolk in her poo. Any ideas on what I should do?

I just moved to Arizona and know NONE of the plants here. This has sprung up in my yard over the past few weeks. Chuck Norris the Tortoise will arrive early next week, and I need to know if this is OK for her to eat, or if I need to get rid of it ASAP. Thanks!

Hi Guys, So I’ve had this female Sulcata for nearly 15 years and she’s around 50 or 60 years old best guess. She was living alone for the majority of her life and 2 years ago I introduced two young males (around 12-15 years old). They immediately showed interest and that same year she laid 6...

I have a 12 year old Male Sulcata I've raised from a baby. This November, I moved out from a stressful living situation. My new room is an attic room, and its typically colder in the winter than the last couple places I've lived. Since we moved, my tortoise has not been eating. It's been a month...

Hello, I’ve been lurking on this forum for the last few months and been trying to take everyone’s advice into consideration but now I need some more specific help. This past fall I adopted/rescued a large Sulcata that had been found walking down the side of the highway. His owners could not be...

My good friend who retired a year ago from 35 years of being an English teacher, lost her beloved 6 year old Sulcata to a rare disease. She has a ranch with an enclosure that would put any one else’s to shame! She spent lots of time with him and truly cares about the animals she surrounds...

Hi there. I have an adult sulcata... 7 years old, and I want to keep him inside. I plan to let him roam the house, specifically the large kitchen or my room. I live in Florida, and what I do with my other turtles/tortoises is let them eat and bask in the sun for a couple hours, then bring them...

My neighbor has a hydroponic garden, and they have bolted romaine lettuce. They don't want it because according to Google, the leaves are a bit bitter compared to regular romaine. So they asked if we want it for our Sulcata. Anyone know if it's okay for them eat it?
