Hello! I was just recently given a Sulcata Tortoise and I don't know too much about taking care of such a tortoise. But I am determine to read all I can to make sure I provide the best care. Based on the info I have read about sulcata tortoise, I believe mine is a female so I am calling her Lucy.
Lucy is as big as my palm. I'm not quite sure how old mybe 4-5 months old. Okay my first few questions:
I built a 2x4 box I thought it was big enough for Lucy to roam indoors but all she does is climb the corners, what can I do about this?
I filled the box with eco-earth loose coconut fiber substrate, but am I suppose to add something else like organic topsoil? and am I suppose to keep this damp at all times? so like am I suppose to spray the substrate with water?
Please educate me on this stuff. Thank You
