Hi Everyone! First off I want to thank everyone on this thread, especially Tom for their amazing guidance. I have a hatchling Sulcata named Darwin I got almost 2 weeks ago and he has been in a set up with Coconut Coir, a humid hide, perfect temps, humidity, basking spot, everything good.
I assumed this scab on his stomach would fall off as it doesn't look open or infected and is completely dried up but I wanted to get advice. Would you guys advise putting him in a plastic shoe box with paper towel and keep it mid to high 80s, or is that not good to do since he has already been out of the "nest" for so long?
I want him to be healthy and will do this if you guys think it would help. He eats a lot, is very active, gets soaked daily, pees, poops, basks, hides, everything he should be doing. I just want to make sure I handle this properly to make sure he is as healthy as can be
Thank you so much in advance for your help everyone! I now realize that Darwin was probably sent home far too early. He is so tiny but such a sweetheart!
