Inactive weather?

[Jeff Shin]

I think my leopard tortoise is inactive these days. she just sleeps under the shades during the daytime. I mean she's so active before the weather gets hotter here. It's about 95F and 70% humidity nowadays. Are they inactive sometimes when it's too hot and humid?

or should I worry about her?

how olds your leopard? How is the enclosure set up? outdoors? even on the hottest days my leopard is active, maybe not all day but never takes days off. Usually on the warmest parts he finds shade, but early hes out basking, Make sure water and shade is available, and try and add a cool side to a enclosure.
