Does anyone know why my tortoise makes those noises?
:(
When she does the voices she secretes mucus from the mouth.
The mucus has a very bad smell.
The only thing that she agreed to eat is cucumber.
Sometimes tortoise that secrete mucus when too hot, But this tortoise makes noises even at night.
I feel that something is bothering her and no one that will help me to help her.

Her age is 14 years so i dont think that the age is the reason.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't get anything from the video.

I guess you'd better plan a trip to the vet. Doesn't sound like normal tortoise activity to me.

What you describe and what's heard in the video does sounds like progressed stage of RI. I would take it to the vet to have it checked out ASAP.

Seems like RI to me. Take your baby to a vet ASAP in case you need antibiotics
