Poor tortoise. Worst case of MBD I've seen and yet they claim that the vet said she's completely healthy and that it will heal by itself.

Wow! HE's pretty crooked. I'll bet he was kept in a 10 gallon aquarium with no light and fed dog food and lettuce.

That poor thing. There seems to be a lot of Sulcatas that are going to people that can't take care of them. We have several in the Spokane area that need homes. I do not have the room or resources to take care of these giants. It makes me sad to see them. They are such beautiful tortoises. Recently saw a craigslist add here that actually said no pyramiding. The poor thing is badly pyramided. Makes me wonder if they know that little or are just hoping to find someone that knows that little to take it.
