We got the "new" tort last night. This tort is a little bigger and actually eating and moving around, unlike the first little guy):
He does look dry though, his shell is chalky looking and his skin is a little flakey. I dont know how he was taken care of up until last night.
I have been misting him a few times and he did drank some this morning. His temps are around 85 and humidity is 70 or higher. The substrate is sphanum moss and coconut fiber mixed. I find it to be sticking to him is this ok? Would bark nuggets be better for him?
Im not stressing out, I just want to know what I can do to help with dryness.
Thanks
