    Can anyone confirm what species my tortoise is?

    I think he probably thought sulcata because they have spurs on the back of their rear legs like Greeks do.

    Hermanns or Ibera Greek. I'm not as good at naming species as the others on here. Either way they are some great looking tortoises

    It's cool to put faces to the names you see so often on here.

    Sheldon's new outdoor enclosure

    St augustine grass is very thick looking so when he stands on his legs he goes down deeper than what it would look. I very rarely see him stand on his back legs with his front legs on the wood trying to peak over. Just to be safe I think I'm going to be adding another layer in the coming weeks.

    Morning soaking

    Yeah he was, he likes to lay in one spot and flap his legs around like he's swimming or something yet he doesn't go anywhere. I'm guessing he likes to see the warm water move around him.

    Morning soaking

    Just wanted to share a pic of my sully soaking in warm water. He seems to really be enjoying himself.

    Sheldon's new outdoor enclosure

    Yep that's his enclosure. I'm just gonna slowly expand it as he grows till it takes up almost the whole backyard. What I have mapped out when he's fully grown comes to 4900 sqft.

    Sheldon's new outdoor enclosure

    He's in there somewhere peak at me. I was considering another layer then adding a flat board on top. Im gonna have to check that out.

    Sheldon's new outdoor enclosure

    Just added a extension to my outdoor enclosure for my sully sheldon. Right now he's around 8 inches and I figured he was due for a upgrade. The enclosure is around 900 sqft now. Which hopefully will last him a couple of years.

    Slowdown lil fella! More food will come.

    Thanks @Pearly, that's great you have the ability to save that Lil RF's life. I agree nutrition is so important. Animals aren't going to trhive on cookie cutter diets. They need a range of different nutritional needs.
