Hi Guys
Wanted to upload some photos of my
Sulcata we named George. He weights about 30lbs and is about 5 to 7 years from what I was told and lives in Central Florida.
I wonder how much you feed your Sulcata, mine has grass he nibbles on all day as you can see but also been giving him collard greens and kale. I also give him Mazuri and have started to grow honey suckle , prickly bear and elephant grass but will be a while till I can feed him that.
I finished converting a dog house last week, I sealed off the side door, insulated it inside inc roof and used laminate tile to protect the wood and then sealed it all with clear silicon. Also added a new door on the side of the house with a lock on it for night and filled it with hay from Walmart but not seen him eat any yet, he has slept in it the last few nights but hasn't yet gone in on his own but has looked around it quite a bit. He seems to sleep about 7pm ET in Central Florida.
I plan on creating an enclosure for him outside of my fenced garden so he can make a mess and dig and such, that's a job for this weekend but unsure how to fence around it, do you think garden wire fencing that cones on a reel at Lowes would do it? Like a chicken wire type fence.
Also been soaking him as suggested but last time I did it he wasn't happy and climbed out of the tote, still doesn't seem to drink much water that I have seen.
A few photos attached. Any comments welcome.
Thank you
Stuart
