Hi I got my leopard tortoise from a breeder at Repticon January 21st of this year and his first documented weight was 43 grams it’s now a little over three months later and he’s only about 2.25 inches long and he kind of fluctuates between 46 and 50 grams. I was not told a hatch date so I’m assuming he’s at least 4 months old. I’m worried he wasn’t started the right way or that there is some underlying issue that’s causing the weight fluctuations but it’s like one day he’s 46 grams and the next he could be 50. He hasn’t shown any outward signs of distress and is very alert he eats all day long, has regular poops, and is soaked for 30 minutes one to two times a day and his enclosure is kept at 80% or higher humidity all the time and I am bringing him to our exotics vet in two weeks. I have a list of what I already feed him excluding some improvements I’ve made since then on my page already!
