Hello everyone, I would very much appreciate responses on this thread as I'm getting very concerned for my tortoise at this point. I own a Hermanns Tortoise who's about 15 years old and yesterday around 3pm, I took him out of hibernation. He sat under the basking light for a good while, I gave him a warm bath and offered some food. Couldn't tell if he drank any water - but food wasn't touched.
This morning I put on the lights and left for work, tort was sleeping in his tree house. When I come home today 8 hours later he hasn't moved a spot, food still untouched. Now I've put him in his basking spot, but he's still incredibly slow, unusually shy and shows no interest in eating.
I'm considering going to the vet tomorrow if things don't get better. Any advice on this matter would be appreciated!
