This little guy came from a recent rescue. The previous owner had him for about 3 years before they bought him from PetSmart.
Do you see any sign of trouble with his shell? I know for a fact that another tortoise I obtained from craigslist showed up shell problem months later. Initially just here and there spotted shell rot and expanded. The previous owner kept him inside without UV bulbs. I wish I had found the problem sooner. However with a lot of sun exposure this summer, he is getting back (but shell problem won't go away even though you can see improvements).
