All Tortoises grow at different paces and time, refresh everyone what your routine is for soakings, humidity, temps, diet, substrate!
That all has something to do with growth too.

[/quoute/]

Heating is 90 to 95 bask cool side 82- 85.
humidity- fogger on one side on all day humidity stays at 75 80
food- mazuri, dandelion, lettuce, red lettuce, bok choy, endive, kale grass this summer when i get him out hoping tomorrow been cold here.
substrate is moss coco fiber and cypress mulch mixed.

I was wondering if i could use that tree fern subtrate?

but I was told before it was the previous owner the breeder who kept him dry to cause this, but im mostly concerned about the sctues stuck together.


he also eats fine never stops

using mvb switched every 4 months to be safe
