I have a 2 year old sulcata that I cannot care for. I have being doing it wrong for so long ( thank you reptile store! ) and would love to find him a good home that will help him! I will include 50 gal tank he is in with bedding, lamp and travel case. I only want the best for him and know I...

HI, I'm so sorry to intrude on your post...but how do i make a new post?? I saw you just posted and can't seem to figure it out.
Thank you soo much everybody for the input! It is definitely noted and has been improved. I will replace the bulb ASAP! We have moved his tank to the garage ( we live in Houston ) so it stays warm and humid in there. Also, he has shown major improvement being in the pool outside. He did a few...
Thank you! I will definitely start soaking him. I soaked him today in warm water...but when i came back 15 mins later...the water was cold. Is there something you do to maintain warm water the entire 20 mins? Or just keep adding warm water? Also, what kind of grass and weeds do you feed? I...
I just purchased peat moss and coconut husk for bedding. I also a calcium turtle block for him to chew on. I put him in a small kiddie pool and have him outside. We will build him an enclosed spot, but for now all I have is the tree bark dome. I also have a small water dish for him. Am I getting...
Ok, after reading all of this...i need major help. I need to change the bark in the tank to what? and how do you guys get the humidity in the tank? I'm starting from scratch and want to correct all of the wrong things i have been doing. I am very wary about going back to a reptile store to get...
My tortoise was actually doing very well for the past 2.5 years. He used to climb his log regularly ( which drove me crazy ) and would always go into his water bowl and sit in there for a while. He was also very active when we would let him run around outside. We talked to a person at the...
Thank you for your response. My only concern is that he is still small. Also, we live in Texas and there are a lot of bugs and ants in our yard. I can definitely build and fence off an area for him, but I'm concerned ants will get to him. I will also get a thermometer and make sure the temp...
Not exactly sure about the temps. Do not have a thermometer in his tank. But he does have a UV light on 24 hours a day and is next to a window. His enclosure size is a 60 gal tank. He usually eats leafy greens like romaine. He occasionally eats fruits and veggies but doesn't really like...
Hi! My 3 year old sulcata has recently become very lethargic. He will only eat if I put him in front of his food and he no longer goes in his water dish to take a dip or drink. He has been this way for about a month. He does eat if I move him to his dish. He also looks as though his shell is...
