Thank you, we have the space outdoors but I feel like it would be under a heat lamp most of its life. 😓In my opinion, if you got the means in space and money, any tortoise can just about live any place.
You are correct. Wrong place for a giant tropical reptile that needs a giant warm space to room around in daily. I wish more people would realize this ahead of time like you have.After doing some research, it seems Southern Oregon isn’t the best place for a Sulcata, what do you think?
Our area has 8 months of the year with average low temps in the 40’s.
there is a rescue needing a home and I’m so uncertain about this. Thank you for any advice.

Obviously, according to those that do it or have done it, that wouldn't be the case. A large heated shed for the really bad days, opened to the outside for the tortoise to have a choice wouldn't hurt either.Thank you, we have the space outdoors but I feel like it would be under a heat lamp most of its life. 😓
