I’ve had my baby for a couple of weeks now. Ordered him from Arizona Tortoise Compound. He started off fairly energetic but has definitely slowed down. At this point he barely moves, and will usually be exactly where I left him whenever I come back. When I take him out to soak he does still get very energetic and try to run away in my hand.
The substrate is coconut soil mixed with moss and rainforest mix bed to increase humidity. Has a hot spot for the day and a CHE for the night.
It’s very difficult to identify if he’s eating. I’ve seen some poop, but the food doesn’t seem to go anywhere. At this point getting fed a mix of spring mix, grasses and weeds, and tortoise pellets.
Any advice as to what is going on here would be greatly appreciated.
