I have a 7 year old Hermanns tortoise. He will not wake up from hibernation. I've tried bathing him daily, I've partitioned off his enclosure so he is in the warmer half as he defaults to burrowing in the cold half of his 5ft enclosure. It's still quite cold here in Ireland at this time of year but his enclosure is warm. He is not eating, he is usually on a diet of lettuces, herbs, weeds and flowers (I am an avid forager and gardener).
His enclosure is made up of coco fibres, woodland bark, sphagnum moss, dried leaves. Barley and wheat grows in the substrate as well as clover and nasturtium and cress. My sister and I have a feeling it's environmental related. He's booked in to visit a vet on Saturday. His eyes have a white film over it which is why we're very very concerned. Has anyone any advice on what's wrong?
