    Hi Kenan So glad that you have Matt to help you at the Kamp. What an excellent idea to repurpose an enclosure that you already had. Thanks for showing the process. Good idea for wheels, so you can make sure that the babies get some sun. All of those baby sulcata's are so precious. ❤🐊Lizards,🐍, and🐢. It didn't take long for that female sulcata to dig out a large burrow. You don't want her to escape..Glad that you got your laundry ducts cleaned out. There was a lot of stuff in there. Have a nice day. Cindy

    Tiptoe, Folks.
    REMEMBER Sulcatas get over 150 lbs as adults!
    Tiptoe is a neat tortoise but he's big (175 lbs)!
    The reality for me is that I'd be more content and secure with a smaller animal. I couldn't handle anything over 20 lbs. It's too much for me! Heck, both of the house cats I cared for were under 12 lbs. They were at my limit for both space and patience!
    (I do like Otis the Turtle but seeing how he likes to bit the nose of his caretaker--!)
    Sulcatas are another weird animal. Definite personalities, though! If you didn't get that impression from the sulcatas other UA-camrs own then I can't convince you otherwise.

    #KampKenan you've been my brother(spiritually) and one of my greatest mentors for over a decade now: I like to share some advice with you so you do not get caught up down the road. First amazing building set ups for the Sulcatas( you can monitor the humidity with all the tech you have,just don't stress over it so much) the filters you just removed "do not try to throw them away" at least I would not. The filters have micro-organisms you need to research on and study what causes the build up and what lives in there (mold yes it's dangerous,but research the types that dwell in them) I've learnt you can cultivate the micro-organisms take out the good ones,than reintroduce them back in the natural environment(or you can make natural herbal medicines from their enzymes to help your animals that live in the kamp) it sounds tedious but trust me my brother you will regret it(look at what the guys at flukers are doing with the bugs) you can do similar stuff on a small scale. It's time management and I know you don't have a lot of time,but fifteen minutes a day to relearn and study these miniature bio-organisms and micro-habitats will guarantee you a huge transformation in your future climate controls.
    You study right? Your Sulcatas will be fine(just til the ground where they live so the water can dry and air out daily) build pipe lines that drain from their enclosure to the another one that needs the water more than they do(they love fruits,veggies,flowering plants matter and of course "dead" or carrin ever now and than) the bad organisms from the filter,the natural sun will dry them out killing them instantly(however) you can make medicine from as well(if your turtles or whatever gets sick,you can ask your local vet about treatment) ..but the majority underlying thing is your environment has all the natural medicine you'll ever need(learn about what you have and you can save tons of money in the long haul) again it's tedious but again you can heal all your animals by giving them natural things from herbs,and soups they drink in their natural basins("memory and knowledge is passed down from mother to children" not from father to son as we are lead to believe in the animal kingdom..it's reverse for humanity but not for animals)
    Just take the time to read this over and you'll understand exactly what I am implying for you to take heed on..

    You're such an advocate for proper reptile husbandry. I find it odd that you continue to breed sulcata. Rescues are drowning in them. Very similar to the duck, chick, or bunny for Easter and the family releases or surrenders them after they get tired of them or can no longer care for them. Don't you think breeding and selling sulcata is unethical?
