Welcome to the forum!

Please keep your torts separated: these cute animals do not like, need or want company. If it gets imposed on them bullying would begin. And give your torts daily soaks in warm water so as to avoid pyramiding and dehydration.

And read the "Beginners Mistakes" Thread as well as the care sheets that are available, and ask any question when in doubt.

Pics of your torts would be appreciated.

Torts in groups are ok. Love the names. I named two of my turtles Chicken and Waffles

Hello and welcome. How old are your tortoises? Where are you?

I agree that sulcatas are generally fine in groups.

Welcome to the forum. 5 sulcatas? You have your hands full. I have 1, and that's enough. Glad you joined us. We love pictures.
