sulcata tortoise

Hello, I have a sulcata that is about a year and half old. I’m needing to build a tortoise table for him in my garage for winter. What is an appropriate size?

I have recently gotten into sulcata tortoises, owning a couple redfoots and a Russian for around 5 years now. I got my little sulcata Irwin(named after Steve Irwin) a few weeks ago but I've noticed the past few days the little guys had some clear bubbles coming from his/her nose. Irwin is still...

So for about a week or so my 8 year old sulcata has been cranky and digging random holes with her back legs. Yesterday she was digging with her back legs for hours in the same hole, but no eggs even though she covered the hole back up. Is this normal?

Hey guys! So I have a 5-month-old Sulcata named Gilbert. He's doing great, very healthy, energetic, you name it. I have been weaning him onto cut grass instead of just spring mix and clover flowers (which he'd been eating for a bit as he wouldn't eat grass before -- this is now getting fixed...
