Hello i have a Sulcata that i rescued and he was 166 grams in a poor environment, i put him in a 4 foot x 8 foot outside enclosure thinking this might help get him some sun and good grass feedings but he has lost some weight that has me concerned. He has been outside for a month now and has lost 30 grams, i live in South Mississippi right on the Gulf Of Mexico, the temps right now are 90 during the day (which will get up to 100 by August) humidity outside is always around 80-100 percent. In his enclosure he has 2 petunia plants growing with plenty of flowers and leaves to munch on, two separate water bowls and a large hide area i have put under a large piece of ply wood, plus plenty of fresh grass. It has just started to rain because of the storm headed this way so i moved the tortoise inside. Any suggestions will help on the weight loss.
