Hello all! I am a brand new tortoise owner in south Florida. My husband surprised me with a baby sulcata for Christmas. He is almost three months old and weighs less than 3 oz. I named him/her Loh. I have been reading over this forum and some other sites to get info on caring for him. I have attached some photos of his enclosure. He came with a ten-gallon tank but I upgraded him to a twenty gallon long for now because I felt the ten was too small. I have covered the back and sides with cardboard to help him feel a bit more secure. The UVB light is on all day and I turn it off at night and turn on his heating pad. The tank is filled with cypress mulch that I sifted through to pull out the large chunks. I mist the mulch daily. I placed a terracotta pot in the corner with mulch inside, which he loves to sleep in. He has also made a burrow behind the pot and next to his heater. In the middle of the tank is a shallow terracotta dish with water. I was told he did not need water in the tank but after a lot of research, I decided he did. On the opposite side of the tank is his food dish. I placed it far from the light so the food would not wilt. I give him his pellet mixture with the proper amount of calcium 3 times a week. He is not a huge fan of that, though he will take a few bites. I give him dark greens every day and a variety of mixed veggies. I always let the food get room temp before giving it to him. He loves his veggies, as you can see in the picture! I also placed some cuttlebone and hibiscus leaves in there. I soak him daily in warm shallow water for 15-20 minutes. He seems very happy, occasionally coming out when he hears me. He will walk around his enclosure, munch on his food, drink some water, sleep in his pot and burrow behind his pot. He is just all around active and curious. Hopefully, I did not forget anything or load too many photos. I tried to choose the ones that were relevant, but it's difficult when they are all so cute! I welcome any advice, as I said, I'm brand new to this. I am happy to meet you all and have enjoyed looking over your posts. I look forward to hearing from you!
what are you planning for the enclosure ?
