Hola all! I have had my testudo tortoise for about 3 months now. Just recently she has been digging under the substrate, which is small pieces of redwood and Timothy Hay...she sleeps all day and seems to eat very little. What can I do to get her to be more active and to make sure she is eating enough? I was thinking of taking her outside on the weekends to get some sun...she has a UV light and heat lamps...HELP?

Serious rain storm last night, as soon as I could see I ran out and brought the 2 biggest plants inside. Broke one big branch off one...damn it! These are the best ever and biggest plants I've grown...
not too sure how to navigate this so I dont know if I am doing this correctly but I would really appreciate if people checked out my fundraiser centered around acquiring russian tortoises, please check it out for more details! (dont feel inclined either! donate only if you are able). https://gofund.me/6f43312b
