Hello everyone! I am hoping I can get some answers here. I have been trying to get answers from a tortoise group on Facebook but I got more people arguing than answers..
I have a female russian tortoise and have had her for almost a year now. I have never had an issue with her until now.
She wakes up in the morning (same time as usual), goes straight to her water dish and drinks some water for a few seconds.. and then starts roaming all around her glass tank. She will pace from one side to the other and just ignore her food. Most of the time she will climb on top of her food and drag it around, burying it.
It has been 2 weeks since she last ate.. and I'm extremely worried.
Her tank is covered on all sides. She does try to "climb" up the glass. It is a wide 50 gallon tank and I am in the process of moving her to an indoor tortoise table. She is about 5 inches in diameter.
I do have a vet appointment on may 29th, but I'm just afraid something may happen before that.
