I think he's not eating good an animal that size should be so heavy you couldn't hold him with one hand like that. So make sure he's healthy and eating good. Quarantine him for several months as the chance is good that he is sick. He's not heavy enough for his size. Don't make the mistake of putting him with your current animals and make them sick...don't you already have 5 or 6 Sulcata? If so I am telling you this guy is sick, so be sure to quarantine him ...
Most guys will be able to hold a 9" tort in one hand for a quick pic. Doesn't mean it may not be sick... But by just looking at the pic, there is no way to tell...
