Sulcata turtle habitat

by Seth Greene
(Yucaipa, Ca)

I have a sulcata turtle that measures 11 inches frem head to tail across the top of the shell. I dont have a proper yard from an outdoor habitat so I am trying to get any ideas or designs for an indoor. I dont want to just throw one together and not be properly informed about what will make my turtle happy. Im looking to go 4 ft by 4 ft untill it gets bigger. Any info you may have will be greatly appreciated.

Sulcata captive habitat

Your pet will grow to about 30 inches and 200 pounds and needs about 30 feet by 30 feet to be comfortable. It needs a shed like a dog house, heated if you are in a cold climate.

Because a sulcata will dig, the fences need to go down in to the earth and be higher than the animal is long.

Keep it slow and steady.
