Tom said:I've re-read the question and after some thought, I want to add to my answer. I stick by my original answer to YOUR specific question. I have never seen one single case of a baby sulcata being "over-fed". However, it is possible to over-feed a tortoise in some situations. For example, if you have and older fully grown russian or CDT and you feed it way too much store bought vegetables and high nutrient foods, AND it doesn't get much exercise for whatever reason, the tortoise could become obese. It would not cause any shell malformations, but in such a case I would call that tortoise "over-fed".
yarok, feed your baby sulcata lots and lots, but keep him humid, warm and hydrated...
