Heyhey new to the game and had been researching for awhile and decided to bite the bullet. This is Fester.
I have a dual lamp setup, a white uva lamp and a red uvb lamp. Before anybody panics, the lamps are suspended and the red lamp is high up enough that it isn't very bright. I use a heating mat only during the night.
I have a fogger that I run once a day to make sure the humidity is just right.
I have a 1 inch thick layer of substrate with coconut Fibre. Before anybody gets upset at it not bring thick enough, I have seen him burrow and he has never reached the bottom of the tank.
I have a mix of vitamin powder supplement, dry tortoise feed, and green pepper/carrot. I have an water bowl set out for him too.
My main issue is his lack of eating or drinking. I've had him for 3 full days and he has done nothing but wander, sleep, dig, and climb on a hollow log to bask . Should I be worried? And how can I make my setup better?
