Sulcata coloration
Found this from a guy named RedoFootMan on kingsnake. He is local and only about 45 minutes away. Selling them for $200 a piece for pick-up.
Is that a Sulcata in the middle? if so, is it just a different type of coloring for the shell?
Thanks!

RE: Sulcata coloration
I believe they will vary in color. I have one that is dark, and then I have one that is very light in color. Just remember how big they get and you have to find a place for him to hang out in the winter!!!!! But they are cute..

RE: Sulcata coloration
Yeah, I've been reading old posts in the Sulcata threads and deciding against it, lol. They get way too big for a person like me who may or may not have a huge area for them in the near future. The smaller torts won't be a problem, but something that gets over 100lbs and can move heavy objects? Not so sure about, lol.
They are darn cute tho!

If you do decide to get a sulcata, there are many nice ones needing homes in turtle and tortoise rescues. You can usually get them free from a rescue.

Most definately. I probably wouldn't do that until I knew for certain that I'd have enough room for them. My current situation isn't very inviting for animals 100lbs+, lol.
