In January he weighted 150 pounds... today he weighs 180 pounds!!!
I've only had Buddy since December 2013. A friend sold her house and had to give him up. She didn't know what type of tort he was. She had him 6 years, her friend had him 10 years prior. I have 3 veterinarians for Buddy!How long have you had Buddy? Those photos are cute.
I find his carapace intriguing, in that it is more domed than all the male Aldabra tort photos I see.
He is make, definitely has an "outie", not an "innie". His tort-hood shows up during shell rubs. lol
He is 25" wide and 34" long.
When I rub his shell, a huge odd pink thing comes from/out his tail and sticks out 6 to 8 inches. It has a bulb shaped thing in the middle.* That is a good picture Mini, are you sure he is a he? It can for sure be very challenging and at times misleading to sex them at that size and age!

I'm pretty sure it must be his male tort-hood... if you get my drift... lol
