The other parts aren't. Like ''the equator'' of his shell is only growing ( i dont know how else to say it :D ) and a bit...

    Corn Salad?

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corn_salad Nutrition Like other formerly foraged greens, corn salad has many nutrients, including three times as much vitamin C as lettuce, beta-carotene, B6, B9, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids. It is best if gathered before flowers appear good? bad? Niko

    Testudo mix

    Interesting. Well its logical to have the female to be the bigger. Its like with dogs, you cant have a female chiwawa mate with a german shepherd male. At birth the chiwawa would die..if not even before. Visaversa yes, the question is if the chiwawa male would be able the hump so high lol.
