Hi Zander Ruidas, and welcome to the Forum!!

your 40lb desert tortoise is actually a sulcata tortoise.

 

[surfergirl]

I have had a sulcata for 20 yrs and just added 4 small torts to my family. 3 russians and 1 hermanns. Just started building their outdoor enclosures to be ready by late spring when temp are appropriate.
can't wait to see these guys thrive outdoors . Planning to hibernate this winter.

this is "Sam" for Samantha
i think all my russians are female but time will tell on the two smaller ones. I love these guys, lots of fun and they are all doing great. Improvements were noticed quickly with the right care following Toms and Chris' care sheets!

Here is a picture of the start to some outdoor enclosures for them. Should have complete by late spring or earlier.

I'm so excited! I've always wanted to be a torti mum, and now I have a baby sulcata! We haven't decided on a name yet, as we're still getting to know him (or her, as it may be). Gunna spoil him rotten, that's what I'm gunna do!
