Here's Livingstone... 10 months.

[Livingstone]

After my last post about growth and shell hardening I had a few requests for what livingstone looked like.

Ill let the photos tell the tail

The photos of him in the air are to show the new growth, and to show his size at 10 months relative to a persons hand.

Enjoy.

Aww, thanks for sharing!

He's so clean! I wish their skin would keep that light, pristine look as they grow older.

At 10 months, you would see some pyramiding if things were not right, and your "living stone" looks beautiful!

He's a stunner for sure! You are one of the only keepers I have seen whose baby sullies have NO pyramiding! That's fantastic! This little tortoise is going to be one hunky adult, that's for sure! Keep updating pics! What's his SCL and weight, if you don't mind my asking.

Are you sure he's a he? I can't remember if Danny weighed in with his judgment or not...

He's absolutely charming. So blond and strong-looking. Like Meg said, he'll be turning those torty heads soon.

Im really not too concerned about whether he's a he or a she. I think its too young to tell, but regardless Im in it to raise the healthiest and happiest sulcata.

Thank you for the compliment.

Super cute, and I love his name! He has very blonde legs. Congrats on the smooth shell. My hatchling is only 5 months old. He hasn't filled the palm of my hand yet.

SCL is 4" and he's heavy... Dont know exactly cuz I dont have a scale.

Very good looking shell, I am going to try more soaks.

He is one of the most beautiful Sulcata's that I've seen yet. You've done a great job with him.

I missed these photos, the first time around.

Wow. Livingstone is big for ten months and soooo smooth. I love it. Have you posted more pics since he's turned a year now?

Sorry if I missed them. Sometimes I have all day on the forum and others no time at all.

A beautiful baby to be sure. Love the look in his eye....
