Always nice to see your picts. Prob the smoothest Sulcata at that weight that I have seen.
WOW! Sully, quite possibly, has the best looking carapace I've seen on a yearling to date! I know Lance breeds a lot of these guys...but I sure would like to have had an exact hatch date to compare with the ITs...as we started our threads relatively close to the same time! 
GOD! I just can't get over that last shot! @Tom ...check him out!

Thanks Zeko and Dean, appreciate your comments. We soak our Sully every morning and have been for over a year now. He gets a good variety of weeds, grape leaves, hosta and Mazuri pellets. I'm glad that we purchased our Sully from @Lancecham since all has benn perfect so far!
Greetings all
I wanted to include a copy of the growth / weight chart that we have been maintaining for the past year now. I wish my mutual funds had this type of rise over time!

It seems like yesterday that he hit 2 pounds. By next week, he should break the 3 pound barrier.... Way to go!!
Thanks @Lancecham - thats one of your babies on his way toward becoming a big guy! Hes really getting more inquisitive and interacts with us more and more.
Greetings,
It seems like our Sully really likes to soak! The longer we soak him the more comfortable he gets and settles in under tyecwarm running tap water. A two hour soak is not uncommom!

Part fish?????
Our Sully is getting smarter. He grabbed a photo from when he was just a kid, and sent this early this morning!
Father's Day update, our boy has gone over the 3 pound mark! Next milestone I guess is 5!

Here's a good frontal view of our Sully. Roughly 13 months old and over 3 pounds now.
Sully looks great. You better put him down. He is missing an opportunity to eat and grow
Only a face a mother could really love! Of course we adore our Sully as well!
Nice warm, humid and sunny day here in Maryland today. The Rose of Sharon are blooming, as are many other nice morsels that our Sully likes, including plain old grass and plantains.
Heres a pix of Sully enjoying the Rose of Sharon

I've been using a coiled UVB light bulb and I don't know if I'm using the right light bulb for basking!
