I just made a post here, and it hasn't posted as far as I can see. Interesting...Anyway, I simply stated that I just had several posts edited and removed arbitrarily. There was no promised notice. Bet no one is surprised by that. I am done contributing here.
I'm glad you posted those pictures. I was expecting something much worse. He doesn't appear t0 be in too bad of shape. For his age, though, he should be significantly bigger. His diet needs some work, and I would still recommend Mazuri to get him growing. The house for him depends, really, where...
