    Male or Female?

    This is Michelle. I think she’s a female, can someone confirm? Or is it too soon to tell? She is 12” long across her plastron. Not sure how much she weighs (need a new scale) or how old she is. I’m guessing around 4-5 years old? Any feed back appreciated!

    Weeds in my yard

    Are all of these okay for a Sulcata? There are more where that came from. I might add other kinds of weeds I find to this thread as well.

    Update on Michelle (constipated)

    My new 7" sulcata is constipated. She hasn't eaten for over two weeks. Her previous care and diet was poor. Fruit and store bought food etc. It took about a week after I brought her home, for me to realize why all she wants to do is sleep. At first, I thought maybe she wasn't used to the Texas...

    Wont eat ANYTHING

    I just brought my Sulcata home 6 days ago. She hasn't eaten in 4 days. Its not normal to not eat when acclimating to a new environment, right? She didn't have proper care or diet before, and obviously I've done something wrong. She is 7" long and I have no idea how old she is. She spent a lot...

    New, advice appreciated!

    Hi everyone! I'm a new sulcata mom! Here hoping for some much needed advice. This is Michelle, I'm pretty sure she is female anyway. She is almost 6" across her belly (is that how you guys measure?) and I have no idea how old she is. My boss' kids found her walking up their drive way one day...
