So a simple question of:
Does a small enclosure restrict tortoise growth (particularly in bigger species such as leopard/sulcata ect.) and does a large enclosure allow the tortoise to grow bigger?
The reason I ask is I have a leopard tort in quite a small enclosure (for a leo anyway) who hasnt grown much since ive had her - she's had checks done at the vets and she's fine. She eats well and behaves normally. But I think she hasnt grown much because of the enclosure which is doubling in size next week.
Could I be right? What are your opinions on this? Do enclosures restrict growth?
