I've officially outted myself as not using a closed chamber. Here are my one year old Greek babies from Garden State Tortoise. They, and I, await your judgment! I've been anxious to do this for a while now. I'm afraid to be torn down, but I also feel I may have something to offer. I realize the group is only worth anything if people share, and my torts and I have benefitted so much from others sharing their experiences. So, here are my babies!!
I've been trying to decide if there are any signs of minor pyramiding, obsessively running my fingers over the scute seams, but it's really difficult with not having more experience. Not knowing what perfect growth looks like or feels like in person- is there no texture at all, or is there some texture regardless??? I've looked at all the up-close pictures I can. I sent pictures to Chris and he was very happy with them.
I want to hear your thoughts on the babies first, then I would be happy to share their setup, and care. They are a year old, and evaluating how they are doing is important to me. Please do not think I must not love them because I do things differently. I have another trio coming my way and have been obsessively researching to be sure these are doing well, if I should raise the next set the same, or if adjustments should be made. I'm open-minded to make needed adjustments, but please don't shoot us down just because we are rebels.
@wellington, what do you think? First two photos taken yesterday, soaking pictures from last month.
