Wow! gorgeous.

Where did you buy him/her from? It's smooth for a UK tort lol.

Thanks everyone :D
I got her from a pet store in Nottingham, I got my previous sulcata from there and we had a few issues, he's doing great now, but shown signs of bad health when I first got him.
I saw Tina a few weeks ago and toyed with the idea of having another, and I wanted to take her from the pet shop before pirimiding started as I think it's down to the store diet that didn't help.my sully. She's lively, health looking! And cute :D

That's good news about your Sully! You probably already know this - but if she was started "dry" she might grow slower than the ones (on here, or elsewhere) that were raised humid from the start.

She does look really good though - could you please PM me the name of the store if you could? :)

...and I guess you know all about humidity? :)

She is a cutie. You do know the two, leopard and sully can't be housed together, right. Also, it may be just the angle of the pic, but it does look like a little pyramiding has already started, again, it could be the angle. Toms threads are below in you need a reminder on how they should be housed. The sully thread will apply.

I'm ware they can't be housed together, and they can't. leopard care I've read up on and with both sully and leopard being African breeds I thought it would be good to have both the same to keep similar diet plans, humidity I leave always around 80 and heat around 95, with daily soaks. any piriminding will be due to the pet store as was with my sually, but with any look it's.caught early and I can sort that out :)

I've PM you the store :) and the online site for the store.

Dry Sully was about right, they had it on dry wood chip when I brought him, same with the leopard. The sullys weight has.only just started to take off he's now 500g last month he was 230g (previous topic about this under my profile) and he was extremely unwell, he's alot better now.
