Hello!! Recently one of my baby tortoises has a soft shell (bottom and top), barely been eating and drinking water, does not open its eyes, and only moves when I poke it. I took it to the vet and they only recommended other foods to feed, but my tortoise won't even eat or open its mouth. What should I do?
**the other 2 siblings are active and do not soft shells
