Thanks Carl, I'll slow it down a tad.It has a lot of growth going on quickly so the scute seems appear 'stretched'. Try and grow him slowly with good food items, good lighting and high humidity.
That's really all you can do.
I'll say this also---that will be an almost solid black adult! Very cool.
I wanted to ask you about protein, at what stage do you start feeding animal protein, this little guy had none yet.
Im not 100% sure but need to ask, I thought keratin growth was basically through protein, is that correct? I know there is protein in foliage too, so does what is happening to this tort prove I have an inbalance between fruit and foliage ratio?
