Cooper, my 10 month Russian hasn't been acting herself for the past month, she lost her appetite and doesn't come out from under her hide, she used to be really active, nothing has changed with her general husbandry.
I've been soaking her almost daily, misting her viv and food, but she never drinks. She's only interested in food if I place it in front of her, and she'll only eat her favourite round lettuce, whereas previously she used eat a huge variety of leaves and weeds.
Anyhow, today she passed a watery ish bowl movement followed by some urates, like any good torty mummy I gave it a good feel, and its was pretty gritty, also there were 2 flat white disks and 1-2 cms in it. I know urates are a sign of dehydration, I'll up her soaks to twice a day, is there anything else I can do?
