Still learning!

[Danyail]

My name is Danyail and my buddies name is Shelldon. I have introduced us here before and got lots of great feedback, so I'm here again to ask another question. How should I go about weighing my buddy? I want to make sure he is growing properly and not being over/under fed. And I would also like to see if I can get an approximation on his age. I've had him a little over a month.

i'd guess he at least 14 ,15yrs old .........get a kitchen scale , my guess is his growth at this point in his life will be really really slow .......

Some people place a tub upside down on the scale - big enough to support the tort on top of it - to make sure they get a more accurate reading. The tort can't crawl off the scale then, Just make sure it's stable and the tort can't kick it from underneath himself, and reset it to zero after you put the tub on the scale. I do mine at floor level.
