This is a long shot: I have a question on sulcata growth rates in the northeast of the U.S. Although I know that any living thing (humans/animals/plants) has its own growth rate, in other words, we all grow at different speeds to different heights/lenghts, how SLOW (or fast) would a captive raised sulcata grow from hatchling to adult in a cold climate region like the northeast, feeding and meeting its husbandry requirements properly? For sulcata keepers in the northeast, what has been your experience/testimony/success on this subject?
