Hi! I live in phoenix. Arizona and own an 90 lbs sulcata that roams around freely in my backyard I have a metal shed that is 10 x10 that is his shelter and was just wondering if I needed to put an a/c in his shed to keep him cool in the arizona heat?

Sulcata Temperature
by: Shelly

A sulcata needs temperatures of about 88 degrees. If it gets too much above that with no relief, you can cook your animal alive. In some way, you will need to be sure the sulcata can cool off if necessary.
