I just got a new Russian tortoise and have it in quarantine from my other 5 Russian tortoises. It had its first poop and I noticed that it consisted mostly of undigested blueberries. I know that they weren't just leftover blueberries from the previous owner because I completely cleaned and replaced the substrate. Is it possible that her gut bacteria have been wiped out due to a decrease in pH in the digestive tract? She has a basking spot of 95 F with a UVI of 2-3.5 in that area. Cold end is around 70s during the day and likely 65 at night.
