Sulcata tortoise hatchling born without claws/deformed. What should I do???

[Katrinanicole10]

Deformed sulcata hatchling. This year my female laid a clutch and out of the 6 that survived one came out a little deformed. His shell is a little more curved than normal and he was sadly born without his right hand. He has an arm but no toes/nails. Please If anyone has gone through this before lmk!

I have not gone thru this. However, treat him like the others and see how he does. He may have to be housed along as he will likely be slower then the others.
He will either do just fine or won't make it.

I'll bet you have already gotten multiple private offers for this little guy. Too cute. I hope he makes it.
