I am a new member living in Maricopa County in Arizona. I got my Sulcata, "Pokey" when someone found it by the side of the road, offered it to my brother-in-law who was not interested, and asked me if I wanted it. I had thought about having a tortoise before but didn't know anything about them and didn't pursue it. I am very happy I said I would take it. I have it in a 10 gallon aquarium and believe it may be time to move up to something bigger. It is about 6-7 months old and growing well. I am happy to have found this site because I know only one other person with Sulcatas and don't have much contact with them.
