Respiratory infection on 9month greek tortoise

I was thinking the same. How's his weight and eating?

@Happy_Tortoise How is your tortoise doing? Inhope she's gettig well?

Hello,
I think she is doing good.
She was very active . Even did a lot of the hamster wheel. (Like for about 15min she was doing it. I was so surprised)

When we changed her enclosure soil she seemed to be a bit less active but her weight seems a bit stable (some days losing and some days gaining) so I think everything is going well.

Thank you for asking

Yay! Great news! Keep us updated, please

She is probably just getting used to the new substrate. Glad to hear she is healthy!

Is it normal for a tortoise to do the wheel for like 15min? I was wondering if she just enjoy it since she went down but still decided to go again 1min after going down. Or if she was trying to reach the leaves of the plant that is next to the wheel.
It was so cute and I have a lot of videos. But I was just wondering if it was normal behaviour

@_The_Beast_ might have an answer to that

Some members say, that they walk on the wheel for an hour or so. They really need exercise to be healthy.

Yeah, to me 15 min sounds normal. I just don't have first hand experience.

Super normal! Sometimes mine will use it for an hour and other times just for a couple laps. It's also a favoured napping spot.
