squishy.jpg Afternoon all I am a first time Sulcata owner I've been wanting one for a couple years after I had the privilege of babysitting my friends little one...however I didn't expect a hatchling (at least that's what I'm being told he is so I'm scrambling to find out what I need to do differently to make everything just right for him.

Hi and welcome he is lovely!
There is a good caresheet under Species Specific for sullies which will tell you all you need to know about diet, temps, humidity, substrate etc. The Beginners Mistakes thread will tell you what to avoid (link below) and the Enclosures thread has lots of great ideas.
There's always plenty of help here so ask as many questions as you like!
