    I can't find my records right now . I may have guessed a tad high, She was probably more like 4 pounds at a year and a half.

    Darwin is the largest 4-year-old that I have seen personally . I'm sure there are bigger but I know people first hand that have them the same age but not even half the size. I would like to see pics of other 4-year-olds.

    Thanks, guys! When I first got her, she was starting to pyramid but thanks to joining this forum and taking all of Tom's advice, she turned out pretty nice.

    Hey, guys, It has been a year or more since Darwin and I have checked in. Life has been busy, just hard to find the time ya know? Anyway, Darwin is doing great.

    Regarding tortoise weight

    Leopards have a High dome so I can kinda see it being that weight. But a 14'' 25 lb sulcata,,,,, no way!

    Regarding tortoise weight

    I measure my Darwin the correct way. She has grown up on this forum and most people are familiar with her. I use a digital scale that says 10 lbs when I put a 10 lb dumbbell on it. So I believe mine is correct. In fact I just did it again to be sure and she is 16 inches long and now she is 19.2...

    Regarding tortoise weight

    Forgive me for posting this here but I figured folks could run across this with all kinds of torts? I have a 3 year old sulcata that is 16'' long and weighs 18.6 pounds as of almost two weeks ago. I read a LOT of different tort pages and see people saying things like my Sulcata is 14'' long and...
