Ok so I have had my little guy since the beginning of December. He is so adorable. I decided to change his "home". I had him in a plastic storage bin. It was pretty big. I decided to put him in a smaller glass aquarium because it is easier to keep warm and keeps it more humid. I think he likes his new home. He even started using his humid hide box which makes me really happy since I have read about how important humidity is. I just weighed him a couple days ago and he weighed 44 grams. He eats alot. So far I have been giving him spring mix and timothy hay. He doesn't eat to much of the hay but sometimes he will take a couple bites. I have offered him grape leaves and he doesn't like it. I also gave him some kale and he liked it. I bought some zoo med grassland tortoise food that I will give him maybe once or twice a week. I also want to try some of the mazuri but haven't seen it anywhere. I am so amazed at how fast I have come to love this little guy. I love giving him his bath in the morning and at night and watching him eat. Just trying to give him a loving healthy home. So glad we decided to get a sulcata, even if they do require so much care Oh and I enjoy reading about and seeing photos of everyone elses torts.
