Hi there, I have a Greek spur thighed (Buddy) He’s apparently 1 year old. We’ve had him for about a month now. He’s been fine up until last few days, not eating and sleeping loads. He lives indoors in a tortoise table from vivexotic. Temps are 36c in the hot and 22c in the cooler end. There is a basking light with uva and heat bulb. Current substrate is sand/dirt from pro rep. Any advice on what could be happening please! Thanks

Hi and welcome! Cute tort and nice little setup. I'll refrain from giving any advice as I'm not familiar with greeks. What's with the "5" on the shell?

Hi I’m from England, it is winter here and have had really cold weather, but it’s still been 22c indoors!
