    Pulsing arms and head

    I've had this hermanns tortoise for less than a week and I don't know if this is normal. His front legs and head move forward and backward as if pulsing. Is this normal?

    My hermann's threw up

    What do I do? His substrate is topsoil. He is about a 5 year old boy. The temperatures are normal except it gets to be 60% humidity sometimes. He has been eating carrots, spinach, bermuda grass, and a little wheatgrass. Can anyone tell me why he threw up? And here's a picture of his throw up.
