I dropped my tort!

[Emilia&Mose]

hey, I know I may be over reacting but I have a 6 month old tort and I went to pick him up and my elbow knocked into something and caused me to accidentally drop him. It was only a few inches onto carpet but he fell on his back and I immediately picked him back up and righted him. He is walking around now, he seems okay but I’m worried for him because I’ve never owned a tort and I don’t know how much damage that could cause.

Will he be okay?

Yup. Not to worry. It takes more than a fall on a carpet to harm a tortoise.

Understandable. I was too when Ghost was that little.
