Ahhhh...ok. I get your point. If they hadn't been taken from the wild to begin with then...

Since I am new to this...."CB" is short for?

Thank you Pearly!

Maggie3fan They are afterall being taken from the wild...we owe it to them.

My hubby has started calling me the crazy tortoise lady. They are a joy to me.

So I had the discussion with my husband last night about my four Sulcatas and their eventual size and destructive nature. He said..."we are gonna need a bigger back yard."

Ok...I think we just got a Tractor Supply on Tucson. Hard to believe considering we have over 1M people now.

Tom, I have a lot of these already growing. I never thought to feed them grass...I will be easy about it. I ordered some orchard grass seed. Do you think it will be ok?

sorry for the misspelled words I'm on skinny smartphone with fat thumbs

Yes there are four. I don't think my husband really inderstood what he was getting into when he brought them to me as a gift. Grapevine leaves? Is that what you mean by "grape plant"?

I have read a few articles on hibernation. I have read at leaat two that contradict on hibernation of African Sulcatas? Do they or not?

I have four hatchlings. I am perfectly aware of how huge they will get. My children have been informed that they are part of the inheritance. I am glad I knew going in that it was a lifetime plus commitment.

Hi all! I like to garden and my new tortoise habit fits right in. What types of grasses and flowers are healthy? I live in the desert, but my back yard is an oasis on purpose. Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated !

Hehehe, they are a major source of my happiness! Although they do not emote....I am sure one of them is a Sooners Basketball fan! ;0)

I have recently been gifted four Sulcata hatchlings...they are at least 4 months old now. I will have to confirm their hatch date. Does anyone know if tortoises pick their humans like say pups or cats do? My hatchlings will respond to me, even climb up into my hands. Especially at feeding...

Huge Help! Thank you! I am so excited to know I haven't been completely neglecting my little ones with bad food.

I am the proud "Mom" to four hatchling Spur Thighs....need advice and want them to be around forever. Terribly attached...
