    I had wire fencing on one side of my tortoise enclosure, and they were always pushing at it. I had no idea it was stressing them out so badly! I actually paused this video in the middle, rant out to the yard, and got some boards. Within a minute of my replacing the fence with boards, they all calmed down and went back to roaming the rest of their space. Thanks to you, my guys are now much happier!

    I LOVE that this video exists. About 8 years ago, I worked at a new pet shop where one of the owners swore that sulcata tortoises didn't need water. Of course, I thought this was insane.
    I did tons and tons of research on them during my time off and set up a near perfect habitat for them (I didn't have the damp moss, in a hide for them, because I never came across that, but it sounded like that's a newer realization.) I also did soaks for them in the morning and after we closed. Which I know now is more often than needed.
    The owner who said that they don't need water wasn't actually supposed to be in the store. It was supposed to be the other owner and me, but he would come in, change the habitat behind my back so that they didn't have ANY water and the wrong substrate and tell customers that they didn't need water, even though I showed him my research. The other owner talked to him about it too.
    It drove me mad, those poor little babies!

    I use a kiddy pool for my 2 tortoises and they adore it. Since I live in Nevada mine are desert dwellers and maybe three times a week I let them out of the pool so they can roam around my yard for a bit. They're around 5 years old now and I adore them

    This was very helpful and i think it would have gone well with my new sulcata, but i wanted to really warn anyone who reads this that plans to get a baby sulcata; so i had the correct and needed lights until my night light for the sulcata broke, so i went to the store and they recommended the red night light, so i bought it.
    We had the turtle for ten days by then, and we got the red light on the 7th day. The baby sulcata was very active, well fed (clovers, romaine lettuce, carrots now and then, aloe vera, a tiny bit of strawberry once, etc.) i also soaked it, i took it out everyday for the natural sunlight, but i realized it hadnt pooped, so i checked and i noticed it was blocked. I looked up ways to fix it, and i decided to use tweezers, very thin ones, to clear the blockage and bark from the organic potting soil was pulled out, and my God it must have been so painful.
    I thought it would have been fine, i had searched it up and apparently it was common, and about a day or two later i tried feeding it, taking it outside, and it stopped eating and was very inactive, and it was said the turtle not eating was common for shy turtles at a new enclosure, which seemed odd because its past actions proved otherwise.
    I took as much of the bark out of the potting soil that day and stopped using the red light immediately, i believed the baby sulcata would be able to fight through it because apparently it was common for them to digest its flooring, but of course i was still worried so before i went to sleep i made sure to spoil it, putting the food and water closer, and when i checked on the baby, which was around 3-5 months old, its mouth would open like it was screaming or crying for help, i didnt know if it did that at night because i usually dont check it at nighttime but i... cant say i wasnt scared for the baby but i chose not to pay too much attention to it.
    The next morning.... the poor thing wouldnt wake up. It passed away, and i pray that the baby didnt go through that much pain, but i believe it must have because its little body couldnt handle it in its stomach.
    I cant say i blame myself, besides the fact i should have done more research because of my ignorance, i know it may seem odd to some people but i pray the baby Sulcata will forgive me for it. I definitely do not blame Kenan, but i would say im more towards the salesperson who sold the red light, though i dont entirely blame him either due to the fact i dont think they would have sold it if they knew it would cause distortion to its sight and make it eat whatever was red, how it was unnatural like any colored lighting during the night, that it wasnt recommended, as i found on mutiple resources.
    Just wanted to let anyone know who gets a rednight light to either not get it, but if you already have it, of course you can change it if you can or so wish, but if you cant please make it a safer flooring for the baby sulcata so it doesnt go through as much pain as mine did.
    Sorry for it being so long, but please, out of everything from this comment, at least do some research before buying anything you have little knowledge of before you buy or use it on your animal; this is my request, yes, but any beautiful and innocent living creature under any owners protection doesnt deserve to be put through that much pain as mine did, so please do it for them.
    Thank you if you read all of this 😊

    I live in Puerto Rico and I recent buy a red foot tortoise, about 4 months old from a breeder. This is perfect for red foots since we have a tropical weather and by this seasons there’s a lot of humidity. Definitely I will have my red foot outdoors when it grows up. Also this video helped me a lot since I’m a rookie with tortoises, never had one before but I did my research and this really helped me a lot. I happen to have a vivarium full of plants, so I’m planning to buy some hibiscus bushes to grow my own tortoise food. I was one of those that where worried cause of my tortoise don’t move too much, she likes to be hiding all day, that got me worried a lot but now I’m relief, hope my red foot one day will look as gorgeous as yours

    This was super helpful!! I'm a snake girl myself have raised and rescued them over the years. We got out of that for many reason but i got a couple baby tortoises.
    I did go build my own tortoise house. Was way cheaper then buying and having to pay shipping. I got both tortoises at same time from same "breeder". After first month I noticed a big difference in their growth. I assumed maybe i ended up with one male and one female. One has not grown at all or much other has tripled in size.
    I'm worried there maybe a problem with it.

    I just got a baby sulcata tortoise a few weeks ago from a pet shop in Deerfield Beach FL that usually sells sick reptiles. When I mentioned to the guy I bought a pink belly turtle there a year ago that randomly died but my other turtle that I caught in the wild in the same pond is big and healthy now ,he made me sign a paper saying they're not liable for a refund if my tortoise is sick and dies. So I picked a tortoise that was more lively then the others but I think he still has some kinda of respiratory infection. I've got new day heat bulbs with high watts,a night bulb and heater pad , which seems to be helping a lot. Also I've added oregano to his diet to help fight bacteria. His eyes are open and he's more active plus eating again,but I still hear him squeaking sometimes. Plus I just realized from this video I've been feeding my little guy too much. He's going to be a bit upset when he wakes up & I don't feed him .. He got a schedule now . Is there anything else I can do to help his with the respiratory infection?

    most of the time in Thailand i have 37 degrees celsius/100 fh. my 2 sulcatas are about 5 months old. at night they sleep in their terrace enclosure - without radiation. in the morning they come to a larger enclosure on the terrace and in the afternoon they are in the garden. now in the rainy season the sulcatas get a few hours of UVB/UVA light.

    Hi. I'm in the UK. There's always rows in fb whether to iuse tables or vivs. Vivs seem a good idea for keeping the heat mor balanced. Anyways I used an indoor rabbit hutch. The plastic type. With a clear plastic top part and a wire top. So heat stays in better than if it was an open table. Torts can't see out. Can also be put out in these on a sunny day x

    I use a terra cotta pot for one of its hides and the base for its water dish.... I just bury it down into the substrate a little so it can get out ok. So cute

    Mercury vapor bulb is great, I still add extra uvb - some are expensive but if you look hard enough, you'll get one for $12 each 100 watters.

    I’m getting a baby tortoise tomorrow (Russian) and I went to tractor supply got a big wash bucket (4.5 ft) and a hole bunch of soil then for a basking spot a terra cotta dish flipped upside down to hold in warmth then there is organic soil a little bit of mulch on top and then a small dish for water and I’m growing a hibiscus and aloe vera plant in pots that gets taken out for three days a week and put in for four days a week also about 10 inches of soil so they can burrow and finally rocks to go around the bowl of water so they can easily get in and out! One more thing I am getting a palm frond for a hiding spot and some moss!! What else can I add and is it too much dirt??????
    Love the channel and this was one of the only vids I watched that didn’t make me scratch my head!! Ahaha
