Hi, my 15month old Greek spur thigh is sleeping rather a lot.

She is eating and pooing etc. however I have noticed a difference in the poo. They are now smaller pellets.

I am a newbie and I am anxious , is my baby ok do you think?

Welcome to the forum.

What is the weather like back there?

Please post pics of your tort and her enclosure so as to enable the experts to help you, and read the care sheets.

Smaller feces might mean dehydration. Do you soak daily?

We soak her every other day
Soak daily. Keep the water warm for the whole soak. Increase the amount of light, up the temps a little, add UV if you are on the low side.

Its time to brumate. If you don't want to brumate your tortoise then the above steps will help.
