  1. It's not gonna happen.  They're slow at everything.


  2. How irresponsible are you? Fast growth in tortoises will reduce their life expectancy considerably and cause severe health problems. On a good grass based diet a sulcata should reach a considerably large size in 15 years. To add to that you will have tortoises that you will be unable to pick up and that will require large amounts of outdoor and indoor space. Please read this care sheet on the optinum environmental and diet in sulcatas, as this will be the only way they will reach their full potential. They require high amounts of calcium for healthy shell growths as well as plenty of UVB light.

  3. If you feed him a good amount of veggies it should do the trick!

  4. read elso trot by road dhal - it addresses that very problem  

  5. not if you want them to be healthy, tortoises grow at a slow and steady pace if you feed them something to enhance their growth you could end up with a deformed shell or end up killing the poor thing, slow and steady honey and you will end up with a big healthy tortoise
