Here's something for you to read... a lot depends on the actual size of the tort, age how it's kept now...the care of a small Sulcata is vastly different than one of an adult...so welcome, but we need more info..example, a small or baby Sulcata can't/won't eat hay, my adults ate only hay during the winter...so pictures would malso help...you'll get asked a lot of questions by others...here's that link...
