Hi, my Desert Ornate Box Turtle recently came out of hibernation, and I was wondering if how he was acting is normal? He is sluggish and always wanting to burrow. He refuses to eat anything other than worms. I’ve been soaking him daily for the past week, which he loves. I bring him outdoors for UVB daily (weather/temp permitting). He is in a 20 gallon tank, which I know is very small, but it is only for winter hibernation. He lives out doors in the summer in a 4x4 enclosure. He is very small too. He gets multi vitamins, calcium, and D3 dusted into his worms. How can I get him to start eating normally again? He used to love food and be very energetic but not after hibernation.
