What a great name! Cant wait to watch Honey grow<3

Cerave Baby. Which Cerave matters. Not cream Not anything else but the Cerave Baby moisturizing Lotion. Whatever you put on the shell make sure to check for allergens and toxins. Not all Cerave products are created equal fyi.

Good point. Humidity is not compeltely out of the picture but it is below 85% which was the only way my setup worked in terms of not drying out the cuticle when the spotlights hit it directly. Also, a big success was making an actual burrow for him mixed with some sand and coco coir which is...

Oh ok then all power to you and your belief. I have one tortoise and have had only one so i cant say i can argue that, altho others on here have experimented. Even 1-2 weeks with my setp caused some uneven and raised new growth. Thats where i realized, yeah hes gonna keep pyramiding and its only...

Zero Pilot if you would have read my post youd realize its not an experiment....i just couldnt prove the humidity he once had, it was situational. So i 1.) Researched other options (according to their natural environment) 2.) Made a call not to forsake Binkeys Health. It was that or just LET...

Aww atlas looks like a little angel in the first pic lol i so wish there was a mini version of the sulcata lol Tom any reason you dont do coco coir but opt for the orchid bark? Think ive asked before but i cannot recall...... Sphagnum moss is neutral it wont do anything to your tortoise unless...

Hes gorgeous! So sorry you have to give him up :( id take him off your hands if i had room for another, beautiful animal.

Mizcreant thankyou very much. I wouldnt have come anywhere close without the forum and senior members, Binkey is living the good life lol i wasnt even aware of what he really was when i got him and was honestly shocked when i learned what he is. (My husband chose the breeder and thought it was...

I have only one sulcata but I do use MVB (and two other spotlights) in my enclosure and i have smooth shell growth. They are 100W+ each so pretty strong. I have to take extra precautions to protect the shell cuticle from drying out. Only time i didnt see drying of the cuticle was at 85%+...

Thankyou :) he is indeed spoiled. He is 13 months old now

Ive never worried much about Binkey's humidity as my green/fish room provided a ton. But tearing my tanks down one by one anticipating a move past couple months ive sorta been cheating on humidity factor a tad and getting away with it with good results. Besides staying intop of nutrition and...

Sorry wish the forum was still on Tapatalk :( I dont have a Pc And the forum is terrible for android. Binkey is doing good growing fast. He/she used to have a long tail but its gotten so short i can barely see it now, makes me wonder if this is how sulcatas all sexually mature by going through...

I wasnt able to load OPOs picks since his April photoshoot! (They finally load)Hes gotten huge!!!!

Wow frank looks fantastic now! Holy cow, great job!

Very short tails...id guess all females! May be too early to tell...
