My other sullies seem to be carrying on with life just as before...ImageUploadedByTortForum1381952947.659461.jpg

And just a random pic of Achilles

Achilles had a pyramiding issue before I got him but I think he's smoothing out a lot better now

I love pictures! [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

I could be off a month or two with Achilles...he was a Craigslist buy...and they got him from a pet shop...so I came up with his age from other sulcatas I saw around that age... =/ not very accurate

I was just going to ask about the age, as my Juju is 4 1/2 months old and 187 grams. He's about 3 3/4". Hopefully that means he's going to get really big! :) How big is your Maximus?

Whew I'm tired lol...translation...I came up with his age by comparing the way he looks to other sullies...in January will be a year since I had him


Maximus is about 140g...before his soak lol


Can you post a picture of JuJu?


Maximus was also another CL buy... =(

This was his last weigh-in, a few weeks ago at 4 months (Oct 1st - I weigh and measure him the first of each month!)


...and a fun one from Oct 7th.


I think yours look great!! They say they all grow at different rates, and this just proves that point. Your guys look healthy as can be, so I wouldn't say they are too small at all. I think Juju might just be a big one. I'm hoping!

Awwww!!!!!! He is a huge baby lol...what are you feeding him?! My guys always have food left over...I offer grass/weeds from the outside and mazuri with diced grass... Then I put them in their outside house to get some sun where they have a variety of greens I planted myself...and they eat it to shreds!

Juju has gained 36 grams in just two weeks. Yikes!


I feed spring mix, collard and mustard greens, mazuri, and chopped grasses and weeds. I leave a cuttle bone in his enclosure for him to munch on as he needs. I live in Wyoming, and it's starting to get cold so the poor guy won't be getting outside time for a while. He is a big eater too!

Thank you too!! I am trying hard! This little guy is my buddy. I absolutely love him (as I can tell you love yours as much!) I can't wait until summer rolls around again so I can make him a yard and plant greens like you've done! Keep up the good work!!
