My Smidgen is a baby Western Hermann's. Yesterday in his soak (in a take-out food dish!) he pooped out a turd that was half as long as his body (I was so proud!) But, it made me curious. I can deal with an inch-long poo, but what must folks who have, for example Sulcatas, experience in this department? I did a google image search and well, hats off to you keepers of very large tortoises! That's a lot! ?

At times when I see Herbie’s “trophy” my eyes must be huge. Nothing like a great bowl movement ??

I've always been amazed at how much poo my guy can produce! About a heaping shovel full a day.
My Sal is pushing about 160 lbs. now . He eats and poo's about like a horse.

Mines 10 pounds and pushes out pretty big poops and poops constantly like horse poop?
