[interex87]

Well some of you my remember bowser as a baby it has now been about 4 years and I think it's time for an update.

I'd say Mazuri, cabbage and supplement powder.
It seems to be working. Nice looking tortoise.

Mazuri and cabbage for the win!!!!!
That's one of his 3 feeding every day plus bails of hay and live grass and weeds in his enclosure.

My LCD monitor at work is from 1996 I think. Pacman looks great on it.

Hey get back to work!!!

Others will chime in and ad that cabbage should only be an occasional food.
Swap it for kale or romaine. And Sulcatas like grasses and hay.

I do I didn't mean he gets cabbage every day.
He gets everything you can imagine every month I get free boxes of vegetables from a place by my house on Saturday's I love when they buy to much prickly pear.

I'm not really a Sulcata guy, but I don't think they eat a lot of vegetables, either. On the other hand, as I said, he/she looks good.

 

[interex87]

yeah lots of things I have taken to heart from this forum on Taking care of him.
Amount of food/to many vegetables is not one of them.

How much does he weigh now?

Whatever you're feeding him, keep it up. He looks fantastic! How big is he now? Its hard to tell from the pics.

I've actually heard kale is super bad for sulcatas. Something about how it can cause calcium deficiency. The guy at my local let store had told me that and nearly had a heart attack when I told him I have my sulcata kale.

I think oxalic acid problems are overstated unless you are really feeding a screwed up mixture.

 

[interex87]

He was about 45lbs last time I weighed him.
