Hello,
I am a newbie to the Tortoise mom life š¢! After a lot of research and talking to pet shops- I am confident that I have a Sulcata. If you see the picture and know itās something else please let me know. I have set up my little guys habitat to the best of my ability. I did quite a bit of research however as many may know sometimes the information on the internet can contradict itself. So I have a few questions hopefully I can get better help here than I did at pet smart where the only information they knew came from the employees mother in law.
1. Hay-Primary diet? Alfalfa or Timothy?
2. Weeds- Are Backyard weeds okay? If not where does one go hunting for weeds?
3. Meal worms- How often should these be given?
4. I get paranoid about the temperature in the tortoises habitat, so I was thinking of putting a camera in there to monitor from time to time. Is there a specific camera that would be recommended, that of course would not get in the way and wonāt bother my little guy?
I am very receptive to feedback. I included pictures of my tortoises habitat. I want to be able to provide the best of environment I can for my Tortoise.
