Any recommendations on where to purchase a sulcata hatchling in Central Florida? Want to make sure I purchase from a reputable source that isn’t starting their hatchlings too dry.
Hi!
All our babies hatched. All doing well, keeping it humid and most of them have begun eating and are lively, curious and adorable. A few are still working on absorbing their yolk sacs. How do these two look? Will that ridge indent go away? I’m keeping these two separate on moist paper towels...
Hello all, I've had my Sulcata for a few months now and things are going great! He/she's growing at a steady rate and given a diet to thrive. All the parameters are spot on (heat, humidity etc) but it seems like young Duncan will only be active in the morning when he gets fed and after his daily...
For as long as I can remember I’ve liked turtles and tortoises, and as a kid owned two red eared sliders. Now as a teenager I have two sulcata hatchlings, one with a very abnormal scute count, anus, and tail named uzi, and one completely healthy named panzer. Uzi has a hard time pooping usually...
I've been weighing my hatchling a few times a week since I got him on 7/6/20. Since the day I brought him home he's always had a steady diet and the same routine. As of 8/6/20, he seems a lot different. He used to eat anytime I would put fresh food in his enclosure and as of lately he's eating...
I now have my enclosure finished! Ambient temps sticking around 85F and humidity is always between 70% and 80%. Side note, he has a humid hide that stays at 100% humidity. Should I shoot for a constant 80% in the entire enclosure at all times or will 70% suffice? My question is how often should...
Hello all,
I currently have 28 Sulcata hatchlings in my backyard. They hatched completely naturally, from nests that I left in the ground. This isn't my first rodeo with this. This happened back in 2012 and 2013, but then I adopted my male out to a family I knew. He recently came back to my...
Hello! I am new to the forum and certainly very new to tortoise keeping! I have recently bought a baby sulcata this month during a reptile show. The sellers said it was a hatchling and that the babies hatched last August.
I wanted to know if my new sulcata looks okay at the moment. I'm...
Just finished this project that has taken me weeks to complete. Essentially, an indoor green house!
This is not a brag....not at all. I’ve been obsessed, trying to get this right! Since I started out with bad advice on desert terrain versus needing humidity!
Ambient temperature: 84°
(No cold...
Hi, I'm new to the forum but a long time turtle lover. I want to purchase a hatchling or yearling sulcata tortoise in the near future and I decided to do more in depth research before I do, thank heavens for finding this forum. I've read so many threads and I've got lots of information but if...
Hello all,
This past Saturday, 11-24-18 I rescued a baby sulcata that my dog had caught in the backyard. I live in southern california, specifically los angeles county...when I found the little guy he was covered in dirt and hiding as far into his shell as possible. Anyways, I cleaned him...
