In a totally different thread involving a totally different species I noticed a reference to problems developing if a tortoise grows too fast.
When I got Elsa (my Eastern Hermann's) on Nov 6, 2012, she was 4.5 inches long and weighed 9.45 oz. Now, on Feb 24, 2014 (about 16 months later) she is 6.5 inches long and weighs 34 oz.
Is she growing too fast?
How could I tell if she's growing too fast?
Thanks!
