I adopted Sylvia last September, I have know idea of her age, she had never been kept outside,fed the wrong foods and is very deformed, seemed very scared and unsure at first, But that was a year ago, today she is very outgoing, eating better foods and getting exercise. She stays outside all the time and did great last winter knowing when to go to her heated house to warm up after eating. I have never seen where Walker has sensed Sylvia even being on the property or her sensing him being around. there are 2 barricades between them, so they have never seen each other. The biggest problem she has is a short neck that keeps her from picking items from the ground.In the pic you can see how she starts her day with the food items just thrown in willie nillie, later I will rearrange what she can't reach and then sometimes hand feed her a little. She measured 17 inches when I got her I haven't measured her since then,I don't think she has grown much in length but has put weight on. She is my first real special needs tortoise,I'm glad she found her way to me. If I could figure a way to feed her mazuri I would feel better. The first pic is the first pic I took of her last year, and the 2nd I took this morning.
