I figured i'd start this one off. I have 2RES, a cooter, 2 russian torts and a brand new baby sulcata. I really don't have any questions about them except my sulcata's shell is sort of lopsided. I was just wondering if anyone knows how it might have gotten like that. My idea was that maybe it was in a weird position in the egg or something. Anyway, tell me what you think.

Good to have you here. I can't picture what you mean by lopsided. Can you get a pic up here? [glow=blue,2,300]:Chez[/glow]

Are you sure that the shell is lopsided and that the sulcata's foot is not hurt? if he is limping, that side of the shell will naturally hang down...

Perhaps it has an irregular scute pattern? That can be from improper temps while incubating the eggs.
