the guy who gave us our little sulcata, Sheldon, wanted to get rid of the rest of his tortoises. We were able to find one of the sulcatas a home (Sheldons sister) but we still have this other guy and are not sure what kind he is. Any ideas?

Welcome! (I agree - desert tortoise. Don't allow him in with your sulcata)
