Being new to torts, I'm not sure how active they are supposed to be. I've only had Bixby for a little over a week. The first few days he was all over his new home but the last few days he hasn't been quite as active. His habitat is warm and humid, I use eco earth substrate and keep it moist, he's been eating spring mix salad with added kale, tomatoes, and calcium. I also added a little boiled chicken this week.
Any comments on activity would be appreciated.

I think Bixby is a he, but not totally sure. He is a cherry head redfoot. I'm in the southern tier of NY and he's kept indoors. I have a sun lamp in his habitat and 2 under tank heaters.
