What are your opinions to:
Can you overfeed an African Sulcata?
When is too much, too much?
Is there a diet clinic for overweight sulcata's.....LOL
Yesterday I drove over 4 hours to pick my adopted african spur-thighed sulcata tortoise.
He weathered the ride pretty good with a little stress,since I think the ride gave him the runs. He did have a normal bowel movement before the diaharea started. Holy Cow! did he ever. Elephants don't poop that big.
By the way has anybody ever been on a long drive with a 50 lb sulcata on your lap who decides to empty his bowels on your lap, stick shifter and the driver. Boy were we glad to get home.
He has timothy hay to graze on all the time and this morning he had his greens and a small carrot. His greens were endive greens, mustard greens, arugula (all dark greens)
He's active and alert and is showing me how to be a bulldozer.
What a great guy. His name is speedy.
thanks for reading my post
