: Hi Dave,
: They are considered adult when capable of reproduction. On the African Tortoise List (linked below) we have a database that you can compare growth rates of many animals raised in different environments.
: Too many things effect growth (genes, sex, diet and etc) to really be able to give you an average.
: Take care,
: tcc :)


: i was just wondering whatthe rate of growht was for a sulcatta tortoise. i just got a hatchling today. i've read a lot about them. i've heard how big they get butnothing tells me how long it takes them to get that large. also when are they considered an adult?
: : thanks
: : dave

I just joined the list. How do I get to the database you refer to? Thanks.
