Recently, Curtis made a pile so large that my parents had to text me pictures because they were worried it was from a coyote or some kind of huge animal. I don't know how they fit all of it in there, much less get it out!
IKR! This pile filled 1/3 of a Walmart bag. He left another sizable pile again this morning as well. Methinks I feed him too well.

That looks familiar. Years ago, I had a 145 pound Great Dane kenneled in the middle of a sulcata yard used by an 80 pound sulcata. The tortoise piles were literally twice the size of the dog piles.

Have and of y'all ever walked in a Galapagos yard? When I say football, I am not exaggerating.

Before someone buys a sulcata or other tortoise that grows large, I think there should be a baby and adult pic of the tortoise along with it's poop! 🤣

🤣OK I'm laughing but also frightened for the future! lol I watched a Garden State Tortoise video just now about the top 5 worst tortoises to keep. Guess who was number 1?

He was saying how they can break through brick walls! I guess sheetrock is a piece of cake for them. o_O🥰
