New Here...just wanna share a pic of my aldabra

[Savannah30]

Hey guys...im new here and just thought id introduce myself and say hi. I Have had godzilla now since he was a yearling and 15 ounces. About 5.5 yrs old now and weighs over 75lbs. He gets the run of my fenced in backyard in sunny south fla For comparison, my lab/chow mix mango is 65lbs, so you can get an idea of scale. Godzilla's really friendly...walks up to me all the time to be pet (on the neck and head)....and eats like a pig ..here's a pic of what he typically eats, with a dollar next to it for scale

Enjoy!

Thanks!! In the beginning he was a little pyramided as he grew a little quickly in the beginning, but as he started transitioning to more grass/hay,roughage, he became a bit smoother
