Am I crazy or did no one tell you what KIND of tortoise you have?
I see everyone helping you care for him but did they tell you the species of tortoise?
If I am right (and I would hate to be the bearer Bad news buuuuttt…..)
You have a Sulcata Tortoise my friend.
They are
THE THIRD LARGEST TORTOISE IN THE WORLD!!! 😱😱😱😱
I know cuz I have one!
Enjoy his youth because they grow big kinda fast.
Poop even BIGGER and will eventually show you that HE is boss. You just pay the bills. 🤣
That being said,
I am sooo excited for you and glad you came to the only place where you will get all the RIGHT help and support you need.
We also pass around the wine from time to time.. and a doobie ain’t out of the question neither!! 🤭

God bless and keep up the good work.
You’re doing amazing 🤩 🙏❤️👍

Bless the little fella, that looks such a random accident, the way the slate is doesn't look a hazard to me, but as he has flipped, I’m wondering if it’d be worth sitting the slate a bit more flush with the substrate in this case? I’m thinking maybe the lip of it, if that makes sense? Is what he toppled off

Also @Chefdenoel10 you raise a very good point! I haven’t looked over the thread recently but thought it had been established lol, our bad if not🥲
