Do you also keep your Aldabra hatchlings outside during the day?
Three sulcata hatchling rescues

- Start date
~ Yes, outside in covered pens during the day hours and inside at night until they are about one month old and 3". If it is cold or storming, we do not.

One week in our custody & care.
One week in our custody & care.
~ It has been a very busy day today, i did notice these three are spending plenty of time in the sunshine and all are eating various foods.
~ I have another rescue to pick up tomorrow, unfortunately the current keeper can't drive, therefor i am leaving first thing tomorrow morning to get him. From the pathetic quality of pictures by text it looks to be about 40 pounds. It is about a two hour drive one way, usually i would try to at least meet half way, my daily driver is a Ford Raptor and it does not get good gas mileage at all.
~ Getting ready to soak all the hatchlings, i will do these three first and get updated weights. It has been exactly one week, i would expect that they have gained a little.

~ We almost always have tiny fresh cactus pads in all of our hatchling pens.
