Hello and welcome. Good sulcata weather in Ontario.
What size sulcata do you have? What are you doing for it so far?[/QUOT
He/she is about a palm size. I believe 2 years old. I have had him/her for about three months. I thought his bumpy back didn't look right. Turns out he/needs humidity! I am now soaking him spraying for humidity and raising heat. I feed him/her hay and green lettuces. Give him/her calcium once a week. Is there anything else I can do for him/her?
Thank you I will get to reading!That enclosure is going to work just fine and here is what you need to do with it:

Looks like you got the typical old outdated advice. You'll need to get a better substrate, add a humid hide, replace the red bulb, etc... Its all explained in the care sheets above.
