: : I've just purchased a 3 month old sulcatta that is about 3" long. Can anyone advise how fast he/she is going to grow? I'm prepared for him/her to become jumbo, but how fast does this happen? How much a year? Inches/pounds? What can I expect in 5 years? When are they fully mature (25" or so)? I've been reading a lot, but haven't found an answer. Thanks. All suggestions welcome!

: Hi Lisa,
: I'll send you gobs of care info off list ok?
: There is no set growth scale for these guys because too many things can effect it: The sex of the animal, diet, exercise, genes, the locality of where the parents are from and on and on.
: On the African Tortoise List, we have a databse where members have uploaded this sort of information to help ppl like your self get a better feel for averages.
: The link to the group is below ok?
: Take care,
: tcc :)
Where is the link?
Regards, Esther
