Thanks Jacob, she has a great personality...

Just a couple photo's from today. She is doing very well, she loves weeds and cactus but won't touch the red sticks or Mazuri but we will keep offering it. Maggie was kind enough to send me some TNT so we will add that to her food several times a week.

She loves to roam the back yard and she has even started to dig a burrow.

She looks wonderful in her burrow with all the dirt on her carapace. I am so glad she is happy now. Sulcata, ya just gotta love'em.

She blends in so well with everything, it's hard to find her. She has 3 places in the garden that she like to hide.

Wow! You know that he/she is doing much better if there is a burrow in the works. You're doing a great job!

Thanks Matt, and it's gotten a little deeper since I took that photo. The little one has been easier to find with all the work on that burrow..

We have to search for Honey everytime we go outside and because she blends in so good it's sometimes it takes us a little while. So yesterday we found her digging under a damaged piece of fence, and she was almost thru. Not sure how the neighbors horses would have like that..

once we filled it back in she went back to the burrow she started, so escape adverted and all is good...

Hope Honey continues to improve-great you have her now. She doesn't look big enough to dig such substantial holes-can you tell I never had a sulcatta???? She obviously has strength and energy too-these creatures never fail to impress me-so strong and determined to survive.

Best of luck-it will be good to hear updates about Honey(love the photos too)

When we gave her free run of the back yard, we didn't think we would have an issue with digging, but she has proved us wrong. We are happy she is digging because it means she is getting better, but I may have to build her an enclosure soon to keep better track of her.

I too am impressed with there will to survive even under the worse care..
