Well, my boyfriend is picking me up a baby Sulcata this weekend because ive been begging him for a tortoise for quite some time 
I have the lights, and i have the winter enclosure, we started sketching out a design for an outdoor enclosure during the nicer months. We've also begun planning future winter enclosures for when she gets large. This is soo exciting! We fully understand the size requirements. As for food, we have a tractor supply 5 minutes away that has grass hay and i have plenty of dandelion and collard greens to mix in. So here are my questions:
1. Is there anything of importance that i should know about that i don't.
2. Is there a safe list of greens to give her, and things not to give her?
3. What UVB would be recommended? (just in case i have to exchange the one i have before she arrives)
4. Preferred substrate? We have Eco Earth and Repti-bark on hand at all times normally.
