Nodder is 5 pounds!!!! Pic

And still as sweet as ever as he lounges in his tub!!!

As you can see he had a bit of a run in with a his ceramic hide which resulted in a small scratch and got bacteria on part of his shell which we are treating.
Sad-his shell was so smooth, near perfect and beautiful, but he's still full of personality and sweet as can be!!!

How old is he? He is gorgeous and the scratch adds character! Not that it's noticeable...

He looks fantastic. In a few weeks you won't even be able to see that scratch. He's growing up so nicely.

Great job! Really beautiful. My tort's water never stays clean long enough for me to take a pic.

2yrs? I wonder how much my 1yr olds weigh...I hope mine grow as fast as yours and are as pretty.

Very nice looking tort! Don't you just love how they bend and stretch them legs all over the place? I sware my sully and my russian sometimes look as if they have broken legs with some of the odd positions they put them in. Just got to love them torts! Had to edit this, 2 years old and 5lbs, man I sware I have a mutant. I love my 23lb monster but I was sort of expecting growth more along the line of yours, lol! He has just outgrown everything a lot faster then I ever thought would happen! Enjoy your normal growth rate! plus I would like to see more pic's whenever you have time!

That is one smooth sulcata, well done!

Is he still making substrate pillows for his beauty rest?
