Wow so happy for you!!!!

More pictures please and also the enclosure

Awww what a precious little face!

Enclosure for now is a 6'x4'x10" wood ensure. Very similar to how Greg keeps his hatchings. This way I can move it around the yard to allow variety of weeds and grass. Ill post a picture of it tomorrow. Currently I bring him in at night and put him in a humidity box. I have on order a 8'x6'x3' custom cage coming that has a cover. Once that arrives I will keep him outside over night. As he gets bigger I have a .33 acre fenced in portion of my yard that he will have free range to roam.

My heart just melted at that face!

That is so cool!

I don't know exact age. But they are this years hatchlings. So im guessing 4-6 months old. I'm going to allow it to graze on grass and weeds and only supplement with spring mix, cactus, and some vegetables once a week. Ill do this for the first month. If I feel as if he is thriving with just grazing I will stop with commercial supplements until it gets a little older. I'm new to aldabras so it will be alarming experience. With lots of help and advice from this forum.
