Ok, I'm NOT really worried about my tort yet, but I AM confused! My Hermann's, Elsa, is about 6 yrs old and 6 inches long. We've had her almost 2 and a half years. She never tried to brumate until this year. Since I hadn't prepared her, we increased the heat and light in her indoor enclosure, but she wouldn't buy it, and kept burrowing in and sleeping for days. We settled on digging her up every 2-3 days: putting her under her heat lamp and putting out food. She would always eat and pee (no grainy urates) and would usually poo.
This week our temps have been in the high 70s and low 80s so I put her in her outdoor enclosure. She basks in the morning sun, then walks PAST her food to go burrow into a big pile of leaves and sleep. To the best of my knowledge she has not eaten either yesterday or today, and still just wants to sleep....
Any ideas what's going on here??!?!
