what about my tort? hes on page one at the bottom.

So far, Dutton, your little guy looks just fine. You don't really start to see any pyramiding or effects until they grow more. Right now yours is still just a little baby, and a very cute one at that!:D

Thanks again Danny!

We had a near death experience today with Trevor. He was on his back in his water dish. Luckily it couldn't have been more than 15 minutes, and he seems fine now. We was breathing really heavy afterward though, and is now hiding. My fiance says he's probably embarrassed, lol. It looks like he was walking on the rim of the dish next to the wall, where there isn't enough width for him. I moved the dish over enough so that there is clearance now for him to walk that way if he chooses. I had originally thought he wouldn't go that way since it isn't wide enough, but he seems to like the straight line path to his destination.

He was walking on the left of this photo against the wall (seen him do it before successfully; this time not so much):
