Hi! Im new to this forum and was just recently given 2 baby sulcata tortoises. One male and one female i think. Im not really sure how to take care of them but ive been browsing through this forum and the various threads and have been reading up on what to feed and what to do. Now im planning to build an enclosure for them with some grass for them to graze on.

I also have a pig-nosed turtle in my pond which is already about 12inches from head to tail. Aside from that i also keep 3 reef tanks. What can i say? i like pets. hehe

Thanks! Right now i dont have pics yet but will try to take pics soon so i can post them here. Im kinda embarrassed to show them now cause they're still in just a plain old box that doesn't look nice at all.

That is ok unless they will be in there for too long when do you think your enclosure will be ready for them?

his leather motor-sport Puma sneaker comes in a sleek black with aged silver accents. If you only buy one new pair of sneakers and want them to be ultra versatile, a black pair might be your best bet. They go so easily from day to night with a higher dress factor and go with practically any outfit. A textile lining and a perforated upper add breathable comfort.’ The lace-up shoe also comes in a white and insignia blue design. Puma doesn’t just get it right with soccer-inspired shoes. With the Puma First Round S Mix, you can get your basketball groove on with this hoops-inspired street shoe. This leather high-top pair is reminiscent of the Puma Basket.

Welcome to TFO. What size are your torts? A large rubbermaid or cement mixing tub works good for little ones.

@emysemys - My real name is Shandy and I'm from Manila, Philippines. Im a guy also cause people often mistake me for a girl cause of my name.

@Missy - They're actually babies. Maybe just 3-4 inches carpace. They were given to me by my grandfather who got it from my moms cousin who actually bred them. Right now they're just in a 12 inch plastic tub with some soil and a few flower pots for hiding. I plan to fix up my other bigger plastic Vat which is around 30 x 24 x 12 inches.

Yes supposedly they are strict when it comes to endangered species but given that the PI is a 3rd world country...well i guess that says it all. :D
