    Baby tortoise sleeping a lot

    Here is his set up, he has a little shaded hide house on the left, I've put some Timothy hay in there. He seems to be in a better mood today, he's been awake most of the day ?

    Baby tortoise sleeping a lot

    I definitely will tomorrow morning, along with the temps etc. I've used to same brand and watt of bulbs, I've never changed anything apart from substrate. Like I said he's usually pretty active and nosey in the day with few naps in between. He did stroll around today for a little while and...

    Baby tortoise sleeping a lot

    His diet is mainly weeds like dandelions, clover, plantain, lambs lettuce, flowers etc and sometimes the odd bit of kale and rocket. I have a dried weed mix so that if I'm running low on weeds etc because of the winter I mix that in with his food. The dish is a mix of dried flowers and Timothy...

    Baby tortoise sleeping a lot

    I've had him since he was a month old, so I've had him a while. I put it down to the weather being in winter time now. I've changed to substrate a few times because I found that top soil was way too dry and dusty. I'm now using coco coir and mist it down every day to keep the humidity high, I...

    Yes he's a Greek tortoise. I didn't even realise about the free roaming. I feel really guilty now ?

    After about 40 mins of me worrying he's not pooped, he finally done one ? I feel so relieved, I bet he does too! Thanks for the advice everyone ?

    Little concerned...

    He's just burrowed in his hide house so he will be asleep for the rest of the night, should I wake him up or shall I do it tomorrow morning as soon as he's awake? I checked his tail area earlier and I couldn't see anything stuck there :/ I tried to upload a video of him doing it but it wouldn't...

    Little concerned...

    My baby tortoise has been doing this weird back leg kicking, and I'm a little worried. He seems absolutely fine in himself, he has been awake roaming around his enclosure for most of the day, I've had him out of there to explore my room a little. He ate his food this morning and I've given him...

    Is this normal?

    That's what I was thinking, I wanted to check just to be sure, I need to stop over thinking and worrying about if I'm doing everything perfectly right ?

    Is this normal?

    Hey there, I'm not overly concerned but wanted to put my mind at ease. I noticed these black marks on my babies belly, he's perfectly fine in himself, eating, he's up and exploring his enclosure etc so he's quite happy.
