Well I have been looking at this site for sometime and finally got a Sulcata. Her name is Lucky. I found her on Craiglist. A woman and her BF were walking around HomeDepot and found her walking around. Someone either dumped her or she got out. The woman had her for 2 months and no one showed so she was looking to re-home her. Looks to be in great shape for walking around in Sept MI weather. Eating good also. I will be making an enclosure this week. Any help to the size. Lucky is about 7" long.

Welcome to the forum!!!

Try to make the enclosure as big as possible, with a couple of hides. Tortoises will use all the space you can give them.

This link is for hatchlings but it will also give you an idea of how you need to take care of a sulcata.
