hiii, i am a proud new mommy of two 6 week old sulcata tortoises.
they have really smooth shells obviously, and im reallly scared of pyramidding that i have read alot about and have seen the shocking photos.
my babys have been eating constantly whether it is lettuce in there turtle table or grass and leaves when they are outside, there are ALWAYS EATING! and from what i have read, if they have poor nutrition and if they eat too much they will grow too big too fast and they will develop those pyramids.
at frist watching them eat was so cute but i think they are eating toooo much and i want to do everything i can to prevent those pyramids and have happy healthy babies
so should i hold back on the food? or how should i go about not overfeeding them??
thaaanks!
