Hi! My name is Ashley. I am a first time owner of a baby sulcata named Apollo Creed. We live in San Diego, CA.
I did my research and knew what I was getting into beforehand I picked the little guy up. This forum has been such great help! I'm really glad I found it in my search. I do still have some questions and I hope you guys can help out.
Should I wet or mist the substrate? What plants can put in the tank? How often and how much do you feed a baby sulcata? I have mazuri pellets and calcium to sprinkle on top. I have been feeding him a mix of kale, spring mix lettuce, radicchio and wheatgrass. Can I feed him vegetables like carrots and cucumbers?
We have terra-cotta saucers for the water and food. I soak him daily. He has both a heat lamp and UVB lamp. There is a hollowed out log for him to hide in and a flat rock for him to bask on. Currently he is in a 20 gallon tank with plans to move him. My boyfriend is the process of building an indoor enclosure for him.
