A friend of mine was given 2 sulcata hatchlings almost a year ago and I have helped her with diet and housing requirements but even though I think everything is correct they just arent growing.
They are in an outside pen. Its mostly in the shade. The burrow stays in the 70's during the day. basking spot reaches 95-100F.
Diet consists of grass, dandelions, bougainvillea flowers, aloe, and opuntia cactus on occaision. Also the food is sprinkled with ground mazuri and miner-all.
They dont eat all that much really. Atleast not as much as my sulcatas ate at their size. They are about the 2in long.
Any ideas on why they havent grown at all in a year?
