Spur Thighed...

How big does the spur thigh grow too?

I dont mean the sulcata.

My biggest gracea gracea female is 2.5kg, but I know Darren at kimbos reptiles was telling me he has a gracea gracea female at over 4kg. I think Iberas can be even bigger!

How many inch is that? Im not good at comparing to somthing by weight lol

[urban tortoise]

mine I think is about 24cmscl length. I can't say for sure with out checking her growth book, which is upstairs next to the sleeping babies room, so I won't be risking waking her to get it I'm afraid.

Ah thats ok. Do you know the average adult size?

[gtm]

A more complicated question than you might think because of the bewildering number of subspecies. Ibera & Whitei tend to be the larger ones & can get up to 3 / 4 K's.

Some of the smaller graeca speices only grow between 600-900grms. It all depends on the speices/sub speices. So its not easy to give an average.

I know of a large female who is over 5kg in weight and then at the other end of the scale I know of a small 350g adult male. It all depends on sub-species/locality.
