What a beautiful boy! Do you have the numbers for how big he's gotten?

 

[ChiKat]

At 8 months he was 84 grams and 2 3/4 inches SCL. I'll go weigh and measure him today and post an update He gained 15 grams from 7 to 8 months which I think is pretty decent! He was off to a very slow start growth-wise when I first got him but he's finally catching up

Very cute boy, and people like you make me jellous! It makes me upset when you notice your tortoise growing becuase I dont see crush growing! Makes me feel like a bad mummy tort
Others say they see him grow, but I think they do that to reasure me lmao!

MADE IT FINAL TOMORROW I AM GOING TO DRAW AROUND HIM ON PAPER AND WRITE HIS WEIGHT AND SCL IN ONE COLOUR AND THEN THE NEXT TIME I DO IT ILL DO IT IN A DIFFERENT COLOUR THEN ILL POST A PIC TO YOU GUYS!!

I LOVE HIM, he is soooo bright (his shell) I like Russians

He's growing up!

Has he started sassing you yet? Don't let him get away with too much, or he'll lose respect for your authority. You saw what happened to Chewbecca with Stagger Lee!

Thanks everyone! He has been a little troublemaker today, racing around his enclosure and trying to climb over things- he dove off his log at one point

Kymiie how old is Crush and how long have you had him?

YES he has been so naughty today!! Trying to climb up the sides of his enclosure, climbing on his tortoise figurine, trying to eat his fake plants, diving off of his log, rearranging his furniture...flipping on his back and scaring me half to death! He is definitely acting out!
