I just read all the posts on your thread. I'm so sorry that you had to go through this with your little one. The fact that you wanted to spare him from the previous owner putting him down shows your compassion for animals. I know it really hurts now, but in time, it will get better especially since you know (and we all are telling you) you did your best for your lil one. If you are considering another sulcata, email me and I'll make sure you get a really healthy baby. I have a friend whose sulcatas mate and have babies a couple of times a year. I got my babies (two of them) from her and the picture I'm sending is when they were 1 month old. If you respond, email me and I'll send you more pics of what they look like now-a year later. Sibi

I am unsure of whether I will get another tortoise (I am definitely considering it) but it's not something I feel I can let into my heart right now. I have tried contacting the breeder and they said they have a 5 day guarantee and there is nothing they would do. Which, I know, is crap. But there isn't much I can do.
