That is a perfect animal! You should probably give it to me for safe keeping.

Nice pic's! Seems like my Cooper is trying to keep pace with yours. Little over 5 inch's and 530 grams at 9 months.. he is a big sully I guess....??

Great pictures as always, was wondering at what age or size are you able to sex aldabras.

We do not even try as hatchlings. I have seen larger aldabras, 300+ pounds and was not sure if male or female by visual observtion.

Hi, Aldabraman, you are always great and my hero, I have been reading your posts here for the last several months.

I have an Aldabra exactly as yours, same age and same size, 5", but only 354grams, but his shell is kinda bumpy and very soft.

Can you please tell me is it normal to have soft shell? I read from some Japanese books saying that Aldabras are known for their soft shells, and the shell will harden after 8-9", is this true?

Is my tortoise bumpy? He eats a lot, should I cut down his diet? thanks...
