Hello My fellow tortoise lovers!! I recently was given a male tortoise for my birthday (2days ago) and I am a little concerned on how he should be acting. All he wants to do is hide under his log. No food no water in the 2 days I have been monitoring him. I have the fun set up with a day cool light a day basking light and a night light. He walks all over his food with no interest just looking for his place to sleep. He does this all day. I took him outside earlier for a few hours he also walks a few inches borroughs and back to bed! I plan on taking him tomm to a vet for a fecal exam as I am concerned. I just attempte to hand feed him a tiny piece of carrot after 20 minutes of staring at my hand he finally ate this tiny piece of carrot and retured back to his log. What shoukd i do? I just want to make sure hes is okay. I dont want to return him in which i now have 12 days to do so. Hes my little russian thusfore Dimitri the II. I also put him in shallow lukewarm water earlier where he submerged his head and opened his mouth in what appeared to be an attempt in drinking water. He still isnt eating nor is active at all. What can i do? Thank you for reading this.
Yours truly,
Dimitri and I
