Do you have pics you can post?
A sand and organic soil mixture does work--I personally use hay. I use hay for 2 reasons....they can burrow easily into it, also nibble on it, and it's easy and inexpensive to clean and maintain.

I can't believe someone would leave them at the dump!! Arrrgghhh..what's wrong with people?

You can't really sex the Sulcata breed until they are about 12-14 inches in length. Even then it's sometimes hard to guesstimate.

And it's also hard to age them. Sulcatas can grow rapidly depending on what foods and how often they are fed. My 4 year old is about 12 inces in length and weighs 8 pounds, my 2 year old weighs not even 2 pounds yet. I've known some 4 year olds to be much bigger then mine but SLOW steady growth is what you want with these guys.
