Hi Guys!,
Any Advice is appreciated.
We bought a Horsefield Tortoise yesterday and did a good amount of research before hand so felt confident we were up to the task of tortoise keeping.
We have everything that has been recommended including all UV lights the right substrate and have set up a nice home but since we got our guy home he doesn't seem to have eaten and just keeps burying down and not coming back out.
The table is 29-30C (outside temp here is 36-40C at the moment
He were told he was about 4 to 6 months old.
Any suggestions on why he isn't eating? Is he just scared of his new surroundings? Is this a common thing.
Thanks
Tom
