sulcata pics (feel free to post yours!) :)

I'm not 100% sure, but in this picture Opo looks female.

About 2 months ago he flashed me. I posted the alien looking thing and members confirmed.

3 years old? he’s Big!

I am hoping for 30lbs by his 3rd birthday. He had a slow down in growth. But with the backyard fenced in now. He is out all day grazing.

He's beautiful...I wish my tortoises weren't all rescues, I sure would like a beautiful Sulcata like him...

Thank you, I started him out dry. I bought him before finding this forum. It looks like Opo's pyramiding is slowly down.
I commend you for saving rescues.

Well, he's really pretty, but what's his name, age? and those toes needs red sparkle polish ?

Thank you for the compliment, but rescue or tortoises was something I was never interested in.. when I got medically retired in 2003, my sister kept coming over with chelonia saying "would you keep this one for a few days while I find it a home?" So I kinda got sucked in that way. I have never had a soft heart to help anybody. But over the years something has happened to me...as an example I freakin LOVE Sulcata...I love playing with them and taking pictures of them...bragging or complaining about them...mine or somebody else's...what ever happened to Monstro? Or another love was that beauty kept by DeanS...I forget his name now...anyhow...over the years I seem to have inherited my sisters affection (not that she has affection for ...) for these beasts, and I developed talent to care for and help them...
here's Knobby...and Big Sam and the first sprinkler of the season..

Crusher, Pickles, & Toretto

I had a snake named Pickles! He's my new favorite sulcata. But they're all so handsome! My husband and I decided not to buy a house with a yard. But maybe someday.... I could absolutely see us moving somewhere warmer with a big yard purely for the tortoise possibilities.
