Hi Rachel:

Welcome to the forum!!

May we know where you are?

Just in case you don't know, (I don't mean to offend you, just sharing info)its not a good idea to keep different species of tortoises together in the same habitat. So I hope you have different habitats set up for Sheldon and Ernie. We've seen quite a few posts lately from new star keepers who have sick stars. They seem to be very sensitive to their environment and to other species of tortoise.

 

[rachie8476]

yes i'm aware of that sorry i didn't make myself clear but they are both housed seperately. we have two vivariums housed next to each other. i have been reading all the sick star posts, hope the one we purchased is a keeper.
