Worried about Lola
Hi just recently we have noticed a change in our russian tortoise Lola's behaviour. She seems to sleep quite alot and only really comes out for food and a little wander then goes right back to digging in her soil under the heatlamp. I would have thought that this might be more normal in the winter but its started getting warmer now...
Also she has been outside for a few hours on a couple of days during the last few weeks and she was quite happy then, but now the temperature has dropped back down again and its dull and rainy.
Is she unhappy/depressed in the house she used to love? Does she want to live outside even though its still too cold? or is there a bigger problem like illness?
Thanks for any ideas you can give x
