We have 2 female (i'm pretty sure) sulcatas that we've raised since we rescued them from a friend when they were babies that fit in our palms. They have been living outdoors in our yard for the past 2-3 years since they've outgrown the indoor enclosure we built. both are really healthy and are...
So I just took in an 18 month old Sulcata… I’ve been researching tortoise care & some people we know had two young ones… when I saw them I noticed the female was in particularly bad shape (the male probably is too but the female is worse) I immediately noticed her disfigured shell & decided to...
Hey all I am between Wilmington, NC and Myrtle Beach, SC and I have been researching and am ready to get my own sulcata tortoise. Does anyone know anyone looking to re-home near me? Or know where I could start looking?
I researched this and a few things say it's normal for the first few days. On day 2 she ate a few bites of her food and regularly drinks water. (To add, I keep a thermometer in there to keep track of the temperature in her enclosure while her lamp is on) She also just sleeps all day, which I...
I am in urgent need of re-homing my 3 year old sulcata tortoise, Tuni, in the Texas area.
I just joined the forum but I've been a long time lurker since I got Tuni back in September 2020. I've had Tuni since he was a hatchling (3-4 months old) and I am reluctant to let him go, but due to...
I'm currently considering offering my couple 18 months old sulcata up for adoption. They are very healthy and has been a quick grower. I live in Dallas,Tx. I need to move out of state and have no time to take care of them.
I would very much like to find them a great home. Feel free to contact...
Hello! We operate a 13 acre nonprofit farm sanctuary in the North Carolina foothills and are interested in finding an adoptable sulcata tortoise to join our motley crew.
I couple of months ago I had found a tortoise on the side of the road almost getting run over. The tortoise is not native to Maryland or the east coast so I must have been a released pet. I figured she is either a 1.5 - 2 year old Greek or Sulcata Tortoise. She wasn't taken care of well, her...
Good afternoon,
My neighbor moved and left behind a small female and a larger male Sulcata turtles. I volunteered to take care of them, however I do believe I am ill equipped to take care of them properly. Tortoise.org directed me to this site. I am looking a place to rescue/adopt them...
I have a male sulcata tortoise named Eli. He’s very sweet, curious, and gentle. He will be 4 years old in September; I’ve raised him from a hatchling. He’s large for his age, measuring about 12 inches, no pyramiding. He LOVES being outside and sunbathing, as well as taking warm baths. He’s...
