Yep, as if I didn't already have enough Sulcata's...I wanted to start a baby from scratch, as all the others are rescues.
I had him ship them to the veterinary hospital where I work,so I have a "baby travel kit" ready for them, with collards, Mazuri, warm moist sphagnum, and a warmy disc underneath so they stay warm and humid until I can escape from work and get them home.
Plan is to weigh them, then soak them for 30 minutes as soon as the get here, then weigh again, then into their box to eat and feel safe before I can get them home.
One is for my neighbor, who's been incredible, and has seizures now. She and her husband have been researching Sulcata for many years and really want one. They LOVE Oliver and check on him when I'm gone too long. So they know exactly what they are getting into. This is a surprise for the wife...Ashley. She has no idea. Jason is building us both custom closed chambers like this....
