Yes my female Herman’s used to mount and groan on each other. It’s a dominance thing and also means they want to mate. So when I got a male tort, they quietened down immediately. It’s bliss now!

How crazy is this? I have heard stories of males mounting other males, but a female mounting another female? She did it to a small Male that I have, and I figured she was just trying to crawl over him in a tight quarter, but then she did it to a female. I thought she was just trying to take a short cut passing above instead of alongside but then she started thrusting and making the grunting noises.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this possibly a display of dominance? She was pacing back and forth like a Male patrolling territory.

They're a horny bunch

From the posts on this forum, it seems that Sulcattas are solitary creatures, my question: Why do people put more than one together ? Yes, I know they are adorable, but the stress - it can’t be good for them ?!?

In a large group of 3 or more, the stress is dispersed and they are usually able to form a pecking order. In pairs, there’s always a dominant and a subordinate, and neither can escape.
