He looks lovely doesnt he

He is loving being able to see, just got to bulk his legs up, as where the muscle has wasted away from anorexia, he has to drag himself along rather than walk, so yeah next thing get some meat on his little legs

190gramms, but I weighed him about an hour ago, and the scales said 200g, but he had eaten a little while before hand

For a tortoise of 3-4 years he just seems ever so small, 3.5-4inches in shell length

Im just interested to see if this is down to his poor diet and care etc
