But could you help me delete all of the threads I made? I apologize because I panicked nd had other people post about it and I was confused and made others confused an I don't want anyone else to come across them and get confused. I know it will be a hard task, but could you delete all of it so...
And I also apologize for any drama that occurred because I panicked when the Pip's health declined. I got confused and ended up confusing everyone else. I do hope everyone will forgive my panic and redundancy and a I do plan to try and delete those threads (though I don't know if it is possible)...
Hello guys! You may remember me and my sick baby sulcata named Pip. For those wondering Pip is doing great and thriving. He is now off his meds and even with the possibility of hatching failure syndrome coming back to bite us in later months (I won't know for sure unless he doesn't grow much) I...

Today was a dramatic day here on tortoise forum. If you can't tell from yesterday's post I was having a nervous breakdown after getting so many contradicting responses to my posts. So I officially am done posting about him, all except this 'diary' to document his life. Since...
TOM- "Do a search here in the vendor review section for Backwater Reptiles and read some of the experiences that have been had by our members. Then all will be clear.
Then read this for more explanation about what is likely coming your way...
The first one is "HELP new baby sulcata". And the second question you have is.... confusing? I said i made an amatuer mistake. That means a beginners mistake....
No thank you. I have already answered all of these questions. This is where my frustration comes from. HFS was first introduced to me by Tom on THIS site. His temps on the cool side are 80 degrees. I was instructed never to let them drop. He doesn't have a lack of appetite either. He just won't...
I dont want you guys to think I didnt appreciate all the help you offered. It's just I had been posting for 6 days and each time I posted the response was different. Some said I was doing everything right. Others said I was doing everything wrong. Some said he had such and such, some asked how I...
Hey guys. You have been so much help. But, I afraid that for the time being I am just going to log off and not get back on. I know know you all are trying to help but the information I am getting is confusing me, repetitive, and contradicting. There is a point where you have to do what you think...
Also he shows no uncomfortableness when he is picked up. He doesn't hide or suck into his shell. He likes being stroked during soaks and stuff like that. I wouldn't do it if he was upset
Okay, I will try to answer everyone's questions. I no longer think he is 2-3 wks old. I just assumed because I'm used to the growth rates of other animals. That was an amateur mistake. Yesterday he wasn't doing good so I mainly overreacted about everything because his health was declining...

Yesterday I did decide to continue with the meds. He didn't look as miserable today, and he seemed to open his eyes more and be a tad more alert. He ate his mush and soaked happily. Today was OK for him. Mainly the struggle today was with me. I kept doubting if I was doing the...
