I recently acquired a baby sulcata that I’m thinking is about 2 months old. This is my first reptile ever so I am trying to make sure I’m doing everything right. Are these darker brown areas on the bottom of his plastron normal?
For reference, he is a pretty active baby, healthy poops. He goes outside in the morning (live in AZ) for 1-2 hours in sun/shade enclosed area and soaks for 10 min in warm water each morning. He is in a 55 gallon enclosure with an average median temp of 83-85°, hotter by his basking light and cooler on the opposite end. Humidity is usually 43-55 durning the day and 70-80 at night with them temp dropping to a median of 78°. He eats grass and hay daily with collard greens, turnip greens, dandelion greens and hibiscus leaves depending on the day and gets a multivitamin/calcium dusting on his food twice a week.
Am I doing everything ok? Is his shell ok? I love him lol. This is my first post thanks for reading!
