I had to emergency rescue this tort from an awful living condition arrangement, but as a new tort owner….yeah.
I do not think this hatchling looks healthy. What is wrong with it ? The shell….
It is behaving fairly normally, is very curious, and eats a little (although mostly from my hand).
Now, it’s only 4:00 pm and he’s just outside his hide in the corner of the cool part, not where he normally sleeps.
I don’t think his eyes look particularly bright either. Currently 86f in the hot part, 78 in the cooler part.
He was found in a neighborhood in Las Vegas near the outskirts, so could very well be desert tortoise.
Please help. Ask me questions. Anything.![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
