Hello thanks for all the info. How about a mix of orchard and timothy? Or should it only be one? I got a bag that has a mix of both I can still return and just get one if needed
Preferably orchard alone is the best for them! Orchard and Timothy mix is the next best thing! Whenever I can’t find orchard alone I buy TO mixed! So no worries on that! And in the case where orchard isn’t around and Timothy is all that’s left , that’s what I go for !
Is orchard grass and alfalfa hay okay to feed to a baby sulcata? I just got a month old hatchling and want to make sure I'm feeding the right stuff. Maybe just cut it up small?
Orchard grass is much more beneficial than Alfalfa hay! I’d recommend alfalfa as a last resort incase you can’t find Timothy , or orchard . My list would be Orchard #1 ( highest in fiber , calcium , and lowest in protein ) then Timothy and alfalfa last.
this is the one and only sulcata petscare video that giving a proper diet to a sulcata.. keep it up!!
Thank you! Appreciate it !
Thanks for taking to time to train on proper care for this wonderful species.
If you are active on UA-cam keep it up!!! I subscribed because I have a baby sulcata and all the videos are really useful

I bought some of the timothy/alfalfa horse hay pellets to soak and mash into my hatchlings food to introduce to him grasses and hay.
My guy would starve before he ate dry hay or dry anything😅
Hi so which is grass should i plant for my 3 year old sulcata tortoise?
Which type of hay do you recommend for juvenile sulcata tortoise ?
We have tons of crab grass in our yard. Can I feed it to my sulcata?
Crab grass should be perfectly fine as long as it hasn’t been sprayed with fertilizer or pesticides!
@@ReadyReptiles how about a hemp plant?
Dont they eat succulents in their native environment

@@ReadyReptiles thank you for the quick response and all the info.
Can these tortoises eat fountain grass plants ?
Quick question where can I get these different type of grasses and hay?
Usually local equestrian feed stores should have it!
@@ReadyReptiles okay thanks!
Any local co-op or ever tractor supply.

@@ReadyReptiles I went out a picked up some orchard grass, it seems to be a hit. Thank you!!
im thinking of getting one cause i have a big field and i was wondering if they dig at all aka dig out of the enclosure
Yes, they do dig burrows which can extend up to 30 feet. That shouldn’t be a problem because they regularly dig in their natural habitat.
Your tortoise shell is suspect
Grasses is much better than lettuce, it's what they were evolved to eat.
How old are you tortoise and do they have names?
I’m 19 and he’s they do
Sorry I saw your videos on Instagram.
