Cookie passed away.

[RayRay]

I took him out from under his log to feed him last night, and fed him his mazuri on his plate.

Today I was out mowing and watching a movie with the family and tonight I went to feed him, and he had hardly eaten, and when I lifted up his log to get him he was dead, underneath it. He had pooped and pushed the coconut coir behind him trapping him I think. He had gone in head first like normal

I have read that some tortoises go into a coma if near death. How long should I keep Cookie for?

So sorry to hear. @ZEROPILOT had this weird experience with a tort coma where the tortoise became reanimated after some time. I'd say, don't burry her, wait at least 24 hrs. I think after having read all those threads I'd probably wait even longer, till signs of decomposition are obvious (color change, smell)

Thanks for the reply but after I asked I got out of bed and looked in the container and there was a pool of blood in with him I dont know when I will bury him yet.

I'd suggest you wait at least 24 hours and even 48, if you can put up with it.
