I haven't been on the forum much, sadly. I've been working quite a bit. Both of my tortoise are doing great, but, considering I am posting in the sulcata area, I am here to give an update on Dexter! She (I believe) is doing really well. Eating every variety of veggie I've been placing in the greenhouse. Weeds haven't been growing as I would love for them to be, but grass, dandelion greens and flower, rose of Sharon, clover and my tortoise grazing feed and Russian tortoise seed mix are growing VERY well.

Dexter is still growing every month. At 17 months old, dexter is 7.75 inches, 1,539 grams (3.6 pounds).

I sure hope everyone has a great day! Glad to read about all of our new members and that our veterans are still posting.

Dexter looks good. Getting bigger and bigger each time. I'm really wondering at this point weather it is a male or female. Any signs yet Blake?

Thanks for the update. Looking very smooth. I'd love to see updated pics of your green house, too.

I'd like to see your green house also! Do you keep Dexter in the greenhouse year round?

It looks messy, but I think Dexter would prefer it that way! The sun wasn't out yet earlier this morning...dexter is still staying warm in the tank until it does.

I realized I didn't include the picture, silly me.

I love it! And I bet Dexter does too! It just looks like a place that a tortoise would love to explore!!! :)
