Meet Mac/Mackenzie, my new 3.5 inch+ Sulcata! I've had him for a week and completely in love with the guy/gal. This website/forum has been amazing help, offering so much information to new owners. My father bought him impulsively from a street seller for my 9 year old brother. Knowing this, I volunteered to make sure he gets the right care and needs. At first I was veered into the wrong direction from Petsmart and other reptile stores, but did extensive research to find out everything they sold me was wrong. I started him in a 10 gallon tank and as I found it was the wrong conditions, I was worried sick and had to move him asap. This past week I've been going back and fourth to get him supplies and finally got the right enclosure conditions, with your guy's help! He is showing some pyramiding when I first got him so hopefully with all the information I've received, it should stop. He's warming up to me really well. He eats from my hand and likes to scramble as I pick him up for soaks, as he's getting less and less shy everyday. He's incredible and want to share his journey with you guys. :):tort:

Hi! Sounds like you are doing great. Is he still considered your brother's?
