I live in Arizona and I have a 12 year old sulcata. I gave it's BIGGER sibling to a local nursery in town late last summer because of the constant attempts at mating and fighting. My Sulcata has always been healthy. The last 3 days it has not wanted to eat or come out of its burrow. We dug out some of the burrow to check on the tortoise and it appeared fine. No labored breathing or discharge from the eyes or nose. Should I be worried? It has been in the 90s and this is not normal for it to stay in when it's this hot. I attempted to get to the tortoise this am but it just moved back further. I would take to the vet but I can't get to it.
I feed it soaked timothy hay pellets and spinach.
