It seems the more information I read on my new rescued friend he/she is pretty small for a Sulcata of at least 3yrs maybe as old as 7yrs. Is it possible with good diet and environment he/she can catch up? Not that it matters to me how big or small he/she is just curious. Right now he/she weighs 2lbs 11.9 oz and is 8in long and 5.5 in wide.

Each animal grows at its own pace. There are three year old sulcatas that are the size of half a soft-ball, and there are three year old sulcatas that are as big as a basketball. Just be happy its healthy. The size comes soon enough!!
