You are a great story teller, do you have someone lined up to take all your animals in the event of your death? I worry because I purchased a hatchling sulcata one night over the internet, after drinking way to much and now I've had her 1 year and a half and she's cute and I enjoy caring for her...
I hope you can find him and give him a home, it gets cold in the dessert at night and it needs food, water and shelter. Someone dumped this poor thing, at that size it has to be over 10 years old
