We were in Sedona Arizona on vacation when we were given the opportunity to see a couple of baby Sulcata tortoises. Of course we fell right in love and impulsively brought one home. I actually smuggled him on the airplane in my backpack He/She is 4 months old. We named her/him Phoenix since we do not know if it is a boy or girl. The father is 80 years old and was rescued years ago from a villagle meat market in Africa! We just set up all his lights/heat lamp tonight and I have never seen the little guy so active. Our one cat is amazed just watching him. I know we have alot to learn and any hints/advise is welcome!
