Got my new baby 2 days ago, she was incubated at temperatures to most likely make her a female, she still doesn't have a name. Resides in the larger Rubbermaid container I could find with a MVB and an under tank heater, coconut coir bedding, a rock under the heat lamp, with moss around the rock to raise humidity, a humid hid box and a water dish and shallow food dish, I'll post pics as soon as I figure out how o do it from my iPhone, sulcata baby's are amazing looking tortoises, am looking forward to watching her grow!

Welcome. I looked at your enclosure thread. I thought you did a good job. I was going to build a new enclosure but am not very handy with tools so I think I will just redo my 50 gallon rubbermaid to make it a little bit bigger. Anyway, cute tortoise! They are definitely some of the cuter tortoises.:)

Thank you everyone, she/he is doing awesome, eating like a little fatty and loving her enclosure, did a small lil upgrade and added plants (we'll see how long they last, lol) and planted different grasses that have just started sprouting
