Hello everyone!
I just recently rescued an african sulcata that was found wandering the parking lot of my father's work. My boyfriend and I have decided to keep him!! He will round out our reptile collection at (4) total. A 5 year old corn snake, a 2 month old ball python and a 23 year old box turtle. He will be staying with my boyfriends parents until we move into a house in the spring. They live in Lancaster, PA and have plenty of space for him to roam around and a nice space for him during the winter. I can't wait to build him an amazing outdoor enclosure and am already learning so much about the new guy who we have named Hercules. We had him quickly looked over at the reptile area of the large pet store up in Lancaster and the guys there say he looks very healthy.
We are ready for the long haul with Hercules and know that he is going to get very big. We just couldn't bare to give him away after seeing how much of an amazing animal he is. We plan on getting him fully checked out at a vet soon to make sure he is healthy. Anyone have advice for a first time tortoise owner?
