I purchased a Sulcata today and its whole shell can be "squeezed" and his nose appears spongy.
I know how to care for him but I would like some insight on how long the improvements should take by people with experience in this because now that i have him at home i see how bad he really is. Also, will the back of his shell harden slightly caved in (that's what it looks like now) or will it round out a little? Owner said he is 2 years old and looks like he's had little to no light exposure. His shell is also a little thicker than a tough finger nail on a person. Isnt it supposed to be thick and rugged at 2 years old? Last question: is softshell the same thing as rot?
