Sulcata Station has returned!

In honor of World Turtle Day (May 23rd), we've returned to the Web. We were out of commission for a while due to a problem with our original site host.

A new and improved site is in the works. Until we get that site built and debugged, we've decided to upload the original website pages so that this information is available to novice tortoise owners.

Purpose of this website

This website is devoted to providing accurate, researched information on the proper care and feeding of Geochelone sulcata tortoises, which are also known as African Spurred Tortoises, African Spur-Thighed Tortoises, African Desert Tortoises, or by various other names

You will find accurate, useful information here on how to feed, house, and otherwise care for your sulcata tortoise, no matter what your level of expertise. We keep sulcata tortoises, and we work closely with other sulcata keepers around the world.
