Just a quick intro from Surprise AZ. Found the site (as many surely do) searching for info on a tortoise I found this past week wandering the streets of our neighborhood. Not having much knowledge on them I wondered if it was a Desert Tortoise or if it was a (what we called in the mid 90's at the pet store I worked) an African spur thigh.... Looks like it's more correctly I.D'd as a Sulcata subspecies of the African Spurred tortoise. I have been attempting to find an owner while driving through the neighborhood and neighborhood watch communications, but in the meantime am considering keeping it if feasible.
This is how I found him on my way to work recently....
I'll be looking through the forum for information on yard setup among other things. What section would be best to post yard pictures and info and current plant species etc for compatibility with this tortoise? I can certainly post here, but don't want to break an "introduction only here" rule my first post!!
