I had 2 Sulcatas, one 24-year-old, Lilly, a boy, one 15 years old. Tomsina a girl, they've been together for 8 years. We called him Lilly, as he was supposed to be a girl, and we thought of Lilly Savage, but that's another story. Yesterday I went to check on them and the Tomsina was dead. She had blood on her nose. There was quite a lot of blood, she was definitely dead, no doubt at all.
They were kept in a large outbuilding with a UV bulb, it's at 20-21 during the night and 22.5 during the day. It's also insulated with 5 layers of heat insulation, so it's a controlled temperature. There's also a humidifier to keep the humidity at the correct level. There's a water source and of course food. Yes, it cost a lot to set up.
I've thoroughly cleaned and disinfected their "house", and cleaned it again so there's no disinfectant left, it's now spotless. LIlly is currently in a spare room downstairs in our house, and going back tomorrow, once I'm certain it's perfect for him.
I know he, Lilly, liked tomsina, as I often had to clean the result of his amorous intentions off her shell. I know I'll never find out what happened, and that worries me, but my concern is Lilly.
My wife thinks we should get another sulcate, as she thinks he'll be lonely, but he's a big chap, 24 years old, I can only just lift him, and just lift him. I'm concerned he'll attack whoever we put in with him.
I don't know what to do.
Can you advise me?
Thanks
