Yay!! I am so excited, here is baby Marley. I got the call yesterday to come and get him!! He just woke up from hibernation, and he is soooo teeny tiny!! He is almost 2 inches and weighs 1.2 oz. He hatched in September. My others look huge now! First order of business was a good soaking, he passed tons of urates and one was very hard. He has been drinking alot. He is spending most of his time in his water dish. He ate very well yesterday, I am sure the little guy was hungry!! So here he is..........

Thanks everyone. He is not interested in his humid hide, so I turned it upside down and now he is sleeping in it. So cute, in a few days I will turn it back over and see if he likes it then. I can't get over how tiny he is, you can still see where he was attached to the yolk sack. Got him outside for a bit of sun today. He stomped around like he was a big tortie!
