    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Greetings all,
It's been like near 4 years since I got into sulcatas.
I'm just over 30 miles east of SanFancisco.
It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter so my torts are in the house about 4-5 months per year.
This coming year they will be outside year round, but I ain't there yet.
They eat Mazzuri pellets and mixed Veggies as their main diet.
They also eat anything they want from our garden most of the year.
It's their run.
The other day (during their inside/house season) we did some cooking and I wanted to give 'em some scraps.
Dropped down a piece of toast with peanut butter and then picked it up quickly because I thought they might be allergic to peanuts so I got rid of that.
My wife just made some just made some killer spilt pea soup with a ham bone that wanted to give them.
Are there any uncommon feeds or treats that I can offer them?
I wonder about this because our macaw has loved pizza,chicken wings,hotdogs and crap like that for the last 19 years.
What do torts like as in scraps?
Thanks
Andy
 
So I'm thinking our torts are doing just fine.
The girls are 10 and 14 inches.
The wife and I are "empty nesters" in a very large house.
Last three years we had the torts in kiddie pools in a spare rooms.
Prior to that they were in a 75 gallon aquarium during the cold season.

This year I had a guy build a run in a large walk in closet but they hated it.
Absolutely hated it.

We are always remodeling.
Just about to put in new flooring in the house so we letting the sully's to "free range" in the entire first floor of the house.
These girls are really showing their personalities.
I am actually digging it.
Having these two knuckle heads walking around meeting people is somewhat entertaining.
They are friendly pigs that are always begging.
Got food???
They want some too.
They are not afraid of anything.
This is the last year they will be in the house.
I am actually going to miss them begging or bumping into me.
Andy
