Pickles is 430grams & Crusher is 250grams. They were 9 months old this week.
Wow love how high domed they are. Are there shells from side view sloped the same from front to back? Or does the front kind of protrude more and drop off faster?
Crusher, the smaller one slopes the same but Pickles is built like a bull dog on the front with a little bitty hiny.
Were they from the same hatching?
I briefly read somewhere that pickles with the different slope is a breed from the India region. But I could have had a thought in my dreams. LOL Time to do some research
I was told they were from a breeder in Oklahoma but my source went shady and wouldn’t answer any of my questions after they were in my possession. Guess I shoulda asked before I paid Oh well... They are definitely opposites in shape, size, and color... I’d be interested to know what you find out
Not at all[emoji23] I’m just obsessive over all my animals and they have a very varied diet! I’m lucky to have a lot of natural food on my acreage plus large grazers as well... I didn’t think that they were growing so much compared to others I’ve seen...How big is yours now?
Wow it's been awhile since I checked out your thread and they got big, and look great! I think it's possible still they're siblings if they came from the same place. My new hatchling Marge and her sibling look completely different.I was told they were from a breeder in Oklahoma but my source went shady and wouldn’t answer any of my questions after they were in my possession.

Thanks Todd! I love that my two are so different but it drives me nuts not knowing their exact history.(not sure why though [emoji849]) Marge is adorable! Whose got her sibling? I couldn’t believe how much she had grown from your post just this weekend! Glad I’ve got to see from day 1!!!
Tortstork still has her sibling. I've seen pictures. There was 2 eggs and one hatched a few days before mine.
I have spent 2 days looking for info on the different shaped carapace on sullies. I cant find what I read before but Sudan is brought up a lot and nothing on India. I hate smartphones when trying to do research. We have to move furniture for me to get to the computer. Time for a laptop.I was told they were from a breeder in Oklahoma but my source went shady and wouldn’t answer any of my questions after they were in my possession.

Is Pickles the top pic? Looks like the carapace is more forward in front. But like Tom says maybe they are to young to tell.
Great looking you have done much better on the pyramiding then me. Would like to try again maybe if I was younger
maybe if I was younger
He is.. he weighs 202 grams more than Crusher.. Crusher also has a small amount of pyramiding:-(.
Thank you Ray! I am proud of them and all their quirks
