Hello!
We are Dustin, Donna and baby Kurt. Family of three that just grew by three Sulcata hatchlings (names tbd, but we are leaning toward Eon, Era, and Mannie). Pictures will be coming soon, promise!
We have a huge lot and are excited to get these guys outside, but for now are doing our best with the indoor thing. I was surprised to learn they need so much humidity!! Before I found this forum, all the other guidance was centered on the "desert" aspect of these giants. Right now the little ones are in a clear-sided rubbermaid on bermuda grass clippings with a guinea-pig size hidy-box. We have a reptile heat lamp (don't know specifics) over the box. I am running out today to get a humidifier, lid, orchid bark, peat moss, and spray bottle.
Last night we fed water-soaked timothy grass pellets that the breeder gave us, and hibiscus flowers and leaves. I know that the breeder was soaking them daily and they were housed on peat moss as substrate.
I'm excited to learn more about our new lifelong pets and make sure they have long, happy lives with us!
