EJ,

You responded to the picture of Suki, our Sulcata, by telling us to "cut the protein". Well, EJ, we got Suki that way. We KNOW he's not supposed to have protein, he has NO PROTEIN in his diet. I used to post on this board all the time, but I got sick of the "I know more than you know attitude" one can run into here. You don't know us, you don't know how we take care of our tortoise, so before giving unsoliticed advice, I suggest you ask.
Suki is WELL taken care of, as we did a whole lot of research before we took him into our lives, and we continue to do research to learn all we can. Suki has a GREAT vet. You should have seen the pyramids BEFORE we got him, he's straightening out nicely, but as I'm sure you must know, pyramiding cannot always be totally be undone.

I posted those pictures for the enjoyment of the board. I realize you are doing what you think is right. But, next time, before you insult my capability to take care of an animal, ASK.
