    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hi! I'm gonna post some photos, she looks pretty much the same tho :) Is there anything I can do about her black mouth? I'm also cultivating some normal grass on a plastic surface (it's like a very big underpot) that I can put it in her enclosure once it's all grown, so she can always have some...

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hello guys, I'm back with an update. I think she's doing a lot better than the first days I brought her home: now she eats at least twice a day and I always make sure she has a lot of food available. I give her grass, lettuce, red lettuce, kale, rucola... Everyday I try to change food and I cut...

    One week ago she was 95, now she's 97 gr. I was hoping for something more. What do you guys think?

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hi, thanks for asking :) I have been soaking her everyday for 30 minutes or a bit more and I have been giving her different foods for her to choose what she likes more. The problem is I still think she doesn't eat that much. I will post in a few hours her weight, hopefully she's gained some.

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hello! I am not 100% sure about her age. The guy from the pet store told me she was born in 2014 and he thought she was around 2 years old, he didn't know in which month she was born though. That's why I am worried, because she's way too tiny. Tonight I will weigh her since it's been a week...

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hello guys, I wanted to ask a question, I weighed her on Wednesday and she was 95 grams, I plan on weighing her next time on Wednesday, so that a full week has passed. How much weight should she gain now? per week or month? I am worried about this aspect because I'm looking around the forum and...

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Hi! I don't know, I think she's more active and she walks around the enclosure but she doesn't eat that much, she always has grass available to eat but she only eats very little amounts. I also added some red lettuce and I noticed that she likes that more. I also thought of maybe adding some...

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    One more thing, when I soak her in water, is it normal if when she's nose breathing, some bubbles come out of the nose? it only happens when she breathes out strongly, not normally. I don't know if it makes sense. I always check the temp of the water an I make sure it's not cold.

    Hi, I'm Lorenzo with a Sulcata

    Pearly, I read the thread about covering the terrarium and I have some questions: 1. My enclosure is made out of wood so if I close it completely from the top with the reflectix I am not going to be able to see the tortoise anymore, because I don't have transparent glass like you do. 2. Your...
