Hello and Welcome

hello and welcome.

Be sure to read the sticky threads on the Sulcata forum concerning diet and care http://www.tortoiseforum.org/forum-88.html

Sulcatas don't live well as pairs together in captivity. They start small and get big. Their ideas get big long before they do.

In the wild, they are solitary. They don't get lonely or need or want company. In captivity this leads to bullying and fighting. You must watch them. If either fails to thrive or becomes quiet or they start fighting, they must be separated immediately and this may well have to be permanent.
