89g

This is a picture showing before and after in 6 months. So she's now, 10-12 mos.

Thank you for the response 🙏 We'll make the adjustments.

I meant she wasn't coming outside in the yard. The basking area is 92-95, during the night it's no lower than 70, 82-84 around her food bowl and farthest in her enclosure is 78.8 but she doesn't go around that area. She's active in her enclosure and walks daily on her wheel and eats all her...

We got our baby Sulcata on Nov 14, 2024. We didn't weigh "her" until Jan, Feb, and March but she's been the same weight (63g). It's been cold so she hasn't been out much so my question is whether this is normal? She is in an aquarium but the top has plexiglass, her temp is about 92 degrees and...

Thank you so much, this gives me a great start. The trees can be trimmed to give more sun as well. Normally we try to reduce the sun but in this case we can definitely get more

It does get full sun in the late afternoon. I'm not sure at what time it starts. Summer's in Texas are brutal so it's good that the house covers some shade. I'll look into the total full sun as well. The picture I posted was at 12:30.

Hello! 3 years from now we are thinking about the outside spot for our lil baby Sulcata. We live in San Antonio, TX and I took this picture at 1pm. It's in our front yard but we also have a gate that will be closed. My question is, what is the recommended enclosure size once you first have...

We are surrounded by oak trees. I think my backyard is a red oak and the front two different oak trees. Are these okay for tortoise to be around?

We have a baby sulcata (6 months?) and she (he? Lol) is inside and doing great. We are slowly planning for her to move outside but currently our front yard is nothing but dirt. I previously had St Augustine grass and a few summers left without watering turned to this. My question is, what would...

100 watt heat plus uva and uvb, the other one is a florescent uvb forr ambient light. Temperature under the lamp is around 95. I'm not sure on the other parts. For diet we give her the planted grass, mazuri tortoise LS diet pellets and spring mix lettuce.

I know this is another post about pyramiding but we just got our baby a month ago and we're new tortoise owners. I want to see if she is showing signs or has it already. Just looking to see what condition our baby came to us with.

My husband added foil around the uvb light so it's sitting right on the cover. The rest has plexi glass.

Thanks! We only have one UVB light, I think it's showing a reflection on one of the pictures. The humidity has been staying above 80 and temperature 90.
