Hello everyone my name is Taylor and I am from southeast Iowa. My boyfriend and I have one tortoise that we love dearly. Her name is Athena and she is a small Sulcata that we have had for about 6months. I joined this forum so that I can get advice from more experienced tortoise owners and keep her in good health! If anyone had any good tips on Sulcata care I am open to all suggestions! Thanks!
. I can't see a pic. However, if the pebbles are small enough to fit in her mouth get rid of them. Also the hay and sand too. The hay is too drying and the sand can cause impaction. Sullies need a high humidity of 80% with temps no lower then 80 day and night and a basking spot of 95+. Always keep a shallow dish of water in the enclosure large enough for her to get in and out, but not deep enough for her to flip on her back and drown. Also, you should be soaking her every day in warm water for 20-30 minutes. Toms threads below will tell you the proper way to set her up to achieve the above and raise her healthy and smooth.
