haha yeah, A very consistent 85% in the enclosure, he got some sun time this morning around from 6-7 and then a soak and passed a bunch of solid poops in the tub. Grabbed some clover and grass and chopped it up with some kale for him today. He also seems to tolerate the Mazuri small tortoise...

Title says it all! I’m going to post a picture, hopefully once a week on Friday of our baby sulcatas growth. First image is from July 26th, 2024.

Okay yeah I think I understand now. Well I can build a larger indoor enclosure and start on an outdoor enclosure in the fall. But I will stick with your recommendation of 10" in length I'm not really sure about the torts age right now, he's 69 grams, what's the average growth time to reach 10"...

I feel like I'm getting off on the wrong foot here, I'm in no way saying it is the correct information or that it is what I am going to do, I was just clearing it up. I fully intend to raise the Sulcata around what is recommended from this forum and proven methods. I understand, fully outdoors...

We will definitely adjust as I should also mention I plan to start building an outdoor enclosure when it starts to cool down, the current setup was only intended for around 1 to 2 years at the most but I think I will be moving up that timeline. I had read in "The best way to raise a Sulcata"...

I do like those greenhouses though, good idea for a future enclosure.

I have had some difficulty trying to source a 65watt incandescent flood bulb so that’s why I got the 125w because it was the lowest I could find and I put it on a dimmer switch, directly under the heat lamp basking spot is around 95-100, once I had the temp dialed in I taped down the dimmer...

Hello my name is Mike and we live in Phoenix, AZ. We recently got a baby sulcata in the last month, haven’t settled on a name but possibly tortellini, my daughter has been asking about getting a tortoise for the last year and a half and figured she would forget about it at some point but she...
