I have 2 sulcata's that need a new home. They are 7 years old and probably over 15lbs. I am not sure if they are female or male. We live in the tampa bay area. Please email with any questions.

JAndersen21 said:Are you a breeder? Where would you have them, indoor or outsides? They like to dig as you may know. I not asking any money for them, I just want them to go to a good place where they will not be able to dig out of a yard. I want someone to take them that is very familar with them and understands how big they get.
I will get some pictures of them and post iin a day or two.
Thanks
Jenny

floridatort said:Hello, I also have a 7yr. old sulcata. I live in Ft. Lauderdale. It stays quite a bit warmer in the winter down here than in Tampa. 70 is the normal overnight low in the dead of winter. For the 1-2 days a year it drops down to the 50's at night, I have an enclosed porch with heat lamps. My lot is 1/3 acre fenced(wood). I use chicken wire under the sod near the fence to prevent digging out, but he doesn't seem to want to since he can't see through the wood. I allow him to dig a burrow. The varied range of temps and humidity that a burrow allows cannot be duplicated and leads to better shell health. I am willing to drive to Tampa and pickup if you are still looking for a home for one or both of your sullys. Send me a PM and I'll give you my contact info.
