lonely luie..

[luieluiehus]

I have a sulcata named luie whom is about 5 years old. he is living outside fenced in our yard with an old play house as his home. he used to live with our bunny, they got along very well and were always following eachother around. but sadly our bunny has recently died and ever since then ive noticed luie hasnt been as active as usual, and he typically stays in his house most of the day. so i was thinking about getting another sulcata to keep luie company and hopefully cheer him up. but i have read that if you keep 2 together they will fight. but ive been reading on here and it seems many people have more than one sulcata. i was wondering if someone could give me some advice and help me out?
thank you

Why not get Luie another bunny companion? Two sulcatas, when raised together, will live in harmony for a while, but eventually and more than likely, they will fight. Doesn't matter if its two males, two females or a male and female. They just don't like to share! You'll notice that when your tortoise gets bigger. He won't even like to have YOU in his area!

Yvonne has a very good idea, why not get Luie another bunny friend?
