I have a Russian tortoise that won’t eat I have him in 6.5 foot x 4.5 foot table as that’s all the space I have he sleeps allot and eats very little but my other Russian eats just fine in the same setup but they are in separate tables he has a basking of 97 with a high quality mercury vapor bulb so uvb is offered as well temp last checked last night I keep checking daily the room temp is 80ish it fluctuates a few degrees and fresh water daily he will eat a strawberry or carrot or squash in desperation to get him to eat but I don’t want to feed that much as they can’t process sugar I have tried mustard greens, kale, oak leaf greens, collard greens, the moz tortoise food and even the wet pellet food that comes in the purple bag I forget the name but I’m at my limit I’m not sure what to try his nose is dry his eyes look fine he sleeps allot also when he is active he stands tall and I keep weight on him and on June 21st he weighed 225.23 grams he now weighs 218.45 grams any advice? I don’t have photos at this time I apologize for the inconvenience
