Yeah he’s outside during the day on our porch that’s pretty big and at night I move him to an enclosure in the garage with a heating lamp. I just wanted him to have a place where he could have like full reign some times where there were no walls or anything.

Hey! It’s been a looong while since I posted on this forum but there was something that I was curious about and thought I’d ask. So basically, I have a pretty big sulcata, I think I’ve had him since 2017 (when I was in 7th grade [I am now graduating HS]) and I live at the beach. I was wondering...

Hi!! When my parents got the first tortoise that I was around for, I was super scared of him!! As I got older I never really cared about it nor learned too; my family always took care of him. But, when he died, I suddenly became VERY interested in tortoises. I felt bad about our late tortoise...

+Sprout= 1053

My brother is 18 and he’s moving out to go to college. I tried to get him to adopt one of those desert torts but he’s not big on tortoises! Lol

To be clear- the table would only be for nights when he couldn’t be outside. (Rainy, cold, panther sighting, etc). I would NEVER want to confine my baby to something that isn’t healthy for him. I just thought that the table would be perfect because my parents were already looking for one and it...

How old are you?

Thank You! We were originally going to use normal metal roofing, but we used that instead so it wouldn't cut me. Also, if you guys have any suggestions on what to put in the planters, please share them!

Yes I do have an indoor enclosure for cool days and at night.

I live in Florida, so the air is naturally humid and warm. This table is outside, so he gets the light he needs. He does not have an outdoor enclosure but my dad and I are modifying an old bunny hutch for him, and it will be done in 1-3 weeks. Then he will have an outdoor enclosure.

I’m not quite sure how old Sprout is but I’ve had him/her for a full year. I think it was 6 months- a year when I got it. It’s still very small.

I know, right?! Happy b-day by the way

Hi everyone! This December, me and my dad built my little sulcata a bigger place to live! Here’s some pics:

I always thought this was a good idea

Unfortunately, I have experienced the effects of this first hand. Someone in my household turned off the tortoise's lamp every night so he could sleep. Bad idea. We keep our house at 68 degrees when we sleep, and my baby sulcata got upper respiratory. He, unfortunately, passed December 15, 2016...

So I’ve had my sulcata ever since last January and it looked about a year old then so I’m estimating it’s about 2-3 years old. I was wondering if one of you could tell if it is male or female yet. I’m not sure if it has anything to do with the tail so I posted a pic of that too.

So I've had a sulcata tortoise for almost a year now, and we've been looking for a better-looking home for him- sort of like one of those dog crates that look like end tables and we've found one! It's a glass terrarium table with large holes for air, and it opens up for cleaning, feeding, and...

There is no top but the substrate hold moisture pretty well

Hey everyone!! I recently had a baby tort die. It turns out that he was sick when I got him!! :( Anyway, yesterday, I got a "trade-in" tortoise. That means someone traded it in to get a different pet. Ever science I got him, he's been a little shy. Every time I approach him, he goes into his...
