Hey everyone, this is Morty. Read Ross Gurley's book on Sulcatas and have tried to adhere to that.
Basic diet right now is red leaf lettuce and wheat grass sprinkled with vitamin supplements
Soak him 3X week for 15-20 min.
Light (UVA+B) is on from 7AM-10PM, temp is 100F under the light, and 80 at the other end of the cage, where he spends a significant amount of time.
Just curious about some behavior:
Thanks!!!

Just curious about some behavior:
- He hasn't been eating a lot, and is picky when he does. For example, he doesn't really ever touch the wheat grass unless its the only thing on his tray. He certainly doesn't touch pellets. However, he has gained 10-15g since we got him.
- He seems kind of lethargic. I've read that baby sulcatas often are, but just wanted some personal insight. He basically sleeps in, basks, eats if he feels like it, then goes to his dark spot.
- Saw him eating his poo the other day--is that normal?
- Ross Gurley's book says there shouldn't be any humidity in the terrarium--is that true? I've read conflicting authorities on this point. As you can see in the picture, there are two water sources for humidity.
Thanks!!!
