Hi everyone on Tortoiseforum:
It is my first time owning a Sulcata, everything is set up accordingly and I've given my Sulcata good balance in the grass and dark green leaf diet. One concern as I watch my Sulcata eat is that, when sometimes it is trying to eat the leaf with the front leg, the toenail would poke into the eye. I know it hurts because my Sulcata then stops immediately, re-position the leg and then continue eating.
I'm really concerned about if this poking eye continues, will the eye get infected or any injury occur due to the scratch from the nail? (the nail is pretty darn sharp for a baby Sulcata that is about 4month old)
If any one have a moment, please let me know. !
Thank you so so much!
