@Tom I bought a kane mat ... about 18 inches. if I would like to do a radiant heat panel, what kind/wattage would you recommend? You once said that a kane mat and radiant heat panel would do, right? (2 1/2 year old sulcata, socal)

Do u know what kind this is?

What type? You know?

What kind is this?

Oh, and Tom, was it you that said sweet potato leaves are safe? I can’t seem to find where I read that... and there’s a ton of conflicting advice about that plant. just curious? what Made you say that he spent some time outside? Is this a bad\good thing? I don’t have a uva\b light... so I do...

thank you for your advice. What size enclosure will be sufficient until he goes outside? im assuming that it also need high humidity until he goes outside, about two years of high humidity? ... is that right?

I have a CHE and a flood light. I take him outside for about 30 minutes a day, sometimes longer. I am not relying on the window at all. Thank u for your answer. how long does a young Sulcata need to be in a high humidity enclosure?

See any signs of pyramiding?

It’s a pretty big tank. Not sure you can see relative size in picture. He still fits in his hide out... if you can see how small that opening is.. Maybe that will give you more of a reference. What do you think? How do you transition housing for a yearling Until he’s big enough to go outside...

Hi, I’m Lesley in Southern CA. I have a hatchling that’s about 8 months. I’ve already read and learned so much from all of you! Thank you. Please review my set up. I welcome constructive and kind criticism. Humidity around 80% cool side between 79- 84 degrees and hot side about 90-95 depending...

Sometimes tiny pinkish flowers appear ...

I live in California and I have this weed like plant growing all over. Anyone have any ideas about what it is or if my baby sulcata tortoise can eat it?

Great! Thank you!! Btw. I’ve seen that you’ve posted images in the past about your enclosures. I can’t see them, due to the old format, any chance you will upload them on a newer format? (Very interested in enclosures) thank you!

I use organic potting soil... good? how often should it be replaced? (Sulcata)
