Hello everyone,
I am a new tortoise mom by fate. Someone left a hatchling African Sulcata on the sidewalk in front of my house last week in a box with a piece of lettuce. I've taken him(her???) in he's eating well and temporarily housed ina 10 gallon aquarium. It's the only thing I had available on short notice since my husband and I were both on the way to work when we found him. I have never owned a tortoise let alone a reptile, so any help I can get will be appreciated. I live in Phoenix area and any local resources would also be helpful. I look forward to meeting all of you.
