Caledonia, I have already gone through this with others. Lily is a 2 and a half year old male med spur thigh - ibera. Yes he is big - but on the ratio (jackson is it?) he is considered an average size. I cant help how he has grown, if anything maybe it was my own fault - what with not feeding exactly the right things. Not because i was intentionally trying to make him big, its just what he ate. That doesnt make it right but i try and limit what he has now. I can only do what is right, from when i found out it was wrong, if that makes sense.
I do worry...and when i read what you put there, it makes me feel bad. Not your fault - you probably meant nothing by it. I tend to get very sensitive to things like that as I feel frustrated at what things i probably contributed to and just didnt think i was wrong. I mean who does when you see them happy and healthy and with a good appetite.
It is only a t rex dish that i use, a small one - and one he has had since i very first had him.
its only now that ifeed the best variety of weeds that i can find. But it never leaves my mind that for 8 or 9 months, i did wrong. xx
I will try to find the pots, and it is for an indoor table so there isnt any escape there. I havent seen large pots for 99p - where is this to - b and q or homebase, or wilkinsons??
xx

...sometimes i even think that Lily is older, but the cites cert said that he hatched between may - aug 2007. I mean, what do you go by - what is in writing (was it lies as he was bought from a shop but hatched at somewhere else) or do i go by my gut instinct. He also shows lots of amourous behaviour, and again, maybe its something in an older male...i just will never be convinced it was all me - overfeeding. perhaps he is older... how do you disprove these certificates (have heard that some are not very legitimate...)

I got mine at B&Q (75p) in the summer months but also saw them at Homebase (99p). They are quite thin and the type that you'd think was too crap for a plant, crack at the first frost.. but fine for torts to hide in

Hi Yuna, I have used the liner for hanging baskets before now, I cut an arch in one side and then she can wander in and have enough room to turn inside. Hope that helps.

yes but they most likely won't be selling them now, that was about 2 or 3 weeks ago
