Mac had his first soak today - not nearly long enough nor deep enough. I did get to corral him in the tub as he attempted to get out. Warm water but only 3" deep. I bribed him with bok choy. Here he is post-soak, enjoying the remainder of the veggies. He did graze some as well. I totally get the living bulldozer comments given his determination to get out of the tub! We ended on a good note, though. He was eating again near the end of his soak.
I'm been looking for comparisons for him. His scutes are mostly elevated - he has one on the centerline that is almost flat (fourth back from his head). I tried to get a picture of his beak - maybe too long. How about his nails? How about his "skirt"? It flares up in places. Also, I took a picture of his bum - shell is in the way of seeing his tail.
Any comments would be very welcome.
He totally filled the 24"x36" space and could step out of the 8" high dish. Guess I'm going to get a larger one before the move on Saturday! I am taking two bales of the grass hay he has been eating as well as some Mazuri tortoise food. I plan to keep him in the dark (based on tonight's readings) to keep him as calm as possible.
Mac also has bubbly, watery stuff in the corner of his eyes, mostly his right eye. Maybe too dusty in his house?
