Two new bulldozers

[IntoTheWildReptiles]

These two were dropped off to me today. I think they have alittle pyramiding but not to bad. I went and bought all the food for them and one is pretty active and the other seems to be alittle shy. Is there anything else I should be doing? They are outside in the sun. They have a hide,water and food at all times. I'm here in Bakersfield Ca so its nice and warm for them.

The shy one

They are very cute... they aren't compared to anything but they look about one to two years old. Sounds like you couldn't do anything better. If they are really that young though they could benefit from a good spraying down every so often. This sounds weird but water them once a day, till they are dripping wet and you might see that pyrmid go away but the time they are adults. Congrats! Are these your first two sulcatas?

Soaks every day.

You know what. You guys are awesome! I love how fast information is shared on here! These are my first two sulcatas we do have a DT. Honestly I didnt think I would like torts that much. I always thought they looked boring. But now that I have some they really are some of the coolest creatures on the planet.

torts are like potato chips you can't eat just one. Though I do not recommend eating them.

 

[Traveller]

Very cute little guys.
Any names yet for them.
Sounds like they have found their perfect forever home with you.

Cute as buttons, the pair of them.

I have two girls age 3 and 9 so the 9 yr old named one Roxy and my 3 yr old named the other rosey. They are truly awesome my wife fell in love with both of them.

 

[Traveller]

Awwwwww great names!
Has the shy one started to settle in yet?

 

[IntoTheWildReptiles]

No not yet. Getting alittle worried she is not eating that I can see. Or walking around. Should I seperate them and give the shy one her own enclosure?

 

[franeich]

Have you tried feeding the shy on anything other that hay?

 

[IntoTheWildReptiles]

Yes I went and bought spring mix and I even tried fruit. She did eat alittle of the spring mix but not much.

 

[Maggie Cummings]

Just give her some time to settle in. Are they protected from those big crows you have down there? Do you think they are big enough to not be carried off by a Crow?
Please do keep them separated from your desert tort...

 

[luvsulcatas]

Very sweet. I wish you well with them.

 

[TortieGal]

I would separate them and see if it helps, There may be some bullying going on. I love their names, so cute.

 

[IntoTheWildReptiles]

Thanks for the help. They are in a different enclosure than my DT. I will try feeding again tomorrow and if she doesnt eat well I will move her to her own enclosure.

 

[Laura]

maybe offer a heated area and see if she needs to extra warmth? lots of different foods. colors. good warm soak..
