    Aldabra eye looks weird.

    Jessee

    His main enclosure (for inside) is 8'x4'. I had built another enclosure identical for some leopards I planned to get but I ended up not getting any so I just took everything except a water bowl out the 2nd enclosure and built a bridge between enclosures so he has run of them both.

The plant that is covering his hide is a...

    The Sudan triplets

    for some reason my post came up under an odd name. Just got a new phone and had to put all the thousand apps back and apparently did this one wrong. I had to erase my app and redo it to get the right name, sorry for the confusion.
