Hi.
I've just acquired...3 days ago...a slightly aged, Hermann's tortoise....Jasmin...
The first day she ran us ragged... power walking around her new outside enclosure... then put herself to bed under a bush... She has always lived out 24/7.
Yesterday, she was a little subdued, eat a couple of dandelions , walked a bit, then off to bed.
Today a little slower and not that interested in food.
Im thinking she's a little stressed by her change of home.... I'm hoping not ill..... what can I do to help her with this upheaval.. any advice will be greatly recieved... also, the first day was about 26°C... yesterday and today about half that... can the sun have such a dramatic effect? Or dco you think stress related.
Many thanks
