Hi guys
Can a leopard and a sulcata can live together in the same enclosure?
Both babies
Or could be bad idea?

They do have the same care but in no time the Sulcata will be bullying the leopard and will out grow him quickly. Bad Idea in my opinion.

Pairs don't do well. Get three or more, but be prepared to give them their own enclosure, unless you have lots of hard to give them. Even bigger yard for more then one sulcata.

Anytime you have more than 1 tortoise you have to be prepared to separate them. Pairs almost never work. Groups of 3 or more work sometimes.

You need a lots work to have your yard ready for your torts, like escape proof and dog proof. A baby torts can be gone in few minutes and you will have very hard time to locate them in the thick of grass or bush.
