Hi everyone .Here goes ?. Having taken onboard a lot of advice from a guy who I think seems to know his stuff ,I have a 14 year old Horsfields Tortoise from a friend of my Wife ,who needed to get it rehomed desperately .I am led to believe that ,although the previous owner thought she was doing everything right, she may well not have been .One major problem was that his beak was almost twice as long as it should have been .. ( now rectified by an expert who has been in the hobby a long time . Anyway ,with a delay in a piece of equipment ,on Saturday it went to my local Reptile shop ,they were concerned as once they witnessed a bubble from its mouth and it hasn't eaten since being there last Saturday .It's home now and VERY active .. as it was in the shop .No signs of any bubbling now ... should I be concerned ... I am trying my best for it. ?.Any advice would be appreciated.It has a vivarium ,heat lamp and uv .
