Help! I have noticed some small bubbles coming from baby redfoot's nose. His eyes are clear, maybe a little wet, but they seemed fine to me. Also, he is not very active...at all. He sleeps all day and night unless I pick him up and wake him up so he can eat. Sometimes he eats a lot and sometimes he eats very little before going straight back to bed. Should I be concerned? I was having a hard time trying to fugure a good, balanced diet for him. He eats a lot of Romaine lettuce and I give him like half a berry every other day as well as some mixed greens everyday. I tried kale but he did not seem to like it that much. He also likes zucchini. I got Lloyd on August 30 as a hatchling and have a Zoomed Powersun UV bulb that provides UVB, UVA, and heat all in one source. I keep it on for at least 13 hours a day. I bathe him every couple days and if I don't, I place him in his water to wake him up. I do not have any light at night. Could this be why?
Is he too cold at night or is it something else I am doing wrong?
Is it concerning that he is not more active?
Is there something I should buy to put in his water, like a mineral or something? I saw something in a Youtube video knce about how every tortoise owner needs.
THANK YOU.
