    Need a new home for my Sulcata (Orange County, CA)

    I'm looking for a new home for my 4 inch Sulcata. I've owned him for 3 months and everything has been good, but I'll be moving to LA after this summer for a new job and unfortunately won't be able to house him anymore. None of my family members can take care of him and some I don't trust they...

    At what size/age can I move my sulcata to an open enclosure?

    I currently have my 4 inch sulcata in a closed off chamber to contain 80+/80%+ degrees and humidity. With research on indoor enclosures, a majority of them are open enclosures. Do sulcata's need for heat and humidity decrease as they get older and bigger? Once my sulcata outgrows his current...

    Need help planning ahead with my Sulcata move

    It's been over 2 weeks with my new sulcata, about 3.5 inches. I currently have him in a temporary closed indoor chamber made of two of the same plastic tubs, 3 feet by 1 feet, 6 inches. We plan to move him soon, in a month or so. My father is against a wooden enclosure, which I said could be a...

    Sulcata runs to the shade

    It's finally warm enough to take my 3.5 inch Sulcata outside (72F) and everytime I place him into the sun, he finds his way into the shade and stays there. I can imagine the shade being a lot cooler, but he seems to want that more than the warm sun. Is this normal?

    Sulcata barely touches his grass

    My 3.5 inch Sully rather eat his mixed greens (gallon bag I buy from reptile store): mustard greens, arugula, dandelion, and another green element also mallow from my backyard. He chews on the lawn clippings I give him but barely. Also the organic wheat grass I got him he barely touches it. He...

    How do I go about putting wheat grass in my indoor enclosure

    I want to purchase some grass for my Sully. Can I use stick the grass and soil it comes with into the substrate? How do I know if it doesn't have any bad chemicals in it? Would buying organic grass get the job done or do I have to buy separate organic soil. I am using coco coir for substrate...

    When is it too cold for Sulcata to get sunlight

    This past week I haven't had the chance to take my Sully out for some sunlight due to the gloomy weather. Currently it is 62 degrees right now with a bit of sun. Is this too cold or should I be fine leaving him outside with supervision for 20-30 minutes?

    Sulcata getting water in his nose during soak

    So early today I soaked my 4 inch Sulcata. He had so much coco coir on his head that I slowly poured warm water over his head to get it all off. He stretched his neck out and seemed to be soothed by it. But after he spent 3-5 minutes blowing water out of his nose. Should I avoid doing this?

    Is 85 degrees ambient too high?

    Yes, I have a Sulcata. 85 coolside during the day with basking lamp on. Goes down to 82-8 Sulcata, little under 4 inches.

    Is 85 degrees ambient too high?

    I purchased a 60 watt CHE bulb that wasn't getting my enclosure to 80 degrees. Now I exchanged it for a 100 watt CHE, and now my ambient on the cool side 85 degrees. Is this okay? At moment I don't have enough funds for a thermostat. Can I leave it at 85 degrees for now?

    Sulcata not passing stool and white substance

    I've own my 3.5 inch + Sulcata for a week. Since getting him, I've seen stool hanging from his tail and cleaned it. Since then, I haven't seen him pass his stool yet. I've given him soaks everyday since. Today's soak he passed white substance and that is about it. Unless, I haven't noticed it...

    Question about ventilation with indoor plastic tub enclosures

    I got a big enough tub for my 3.5 inch Sulcata. It stands 14 inches tall. I have a mesh lid holding the basking lamp/UVB/A and I have the tub's lid placed covering 2/3 of the enclosure holding up a CHE lamp. For better humidity and temperature control, I was thinking of placing a tub of the same...

    Need to move Sulcata asap, would love feedback on my soon to be DIY enclosure

    Here is my little guy: streamable.com/7pv3r. He's a little less than 4 inches. I'm not certain on the age. My father bought him without that information. So I guess I'll look into something bigger. Could you roughly give me the dimensions of a plastic tub that will work?

    Need to move Sulcata asap, would love feedback on my soon to be DIY enclosure

    I have a new Sulcata in a 10 gallon tank for the past 4 days. Definitely not suitable for him with the research I've done. So I want to move him as soon as possible. Currently I have this: (https://imgur.com/a/Mdmng) laying around and wonder if it is suffice enough for an indoor enclosure...
