Hello! I'm a first time baby sulcata owner, andI have a sulcata tortoise that's only a month old. She is acting strange lately and having a hard time eating. I have her housed in a small 12"x 24" tub that's open on the top, and she is on a wood chipping bedding right now. We take her out twice a day to roam in our little garden outside for 30 minutes, sometimes to an hour until she tires herself out.
And more in depth on the strange behavior: whenever she tries to eat or go for something to bite, she looks up and sideways and bites the air. Theres nothing blocking her vision, or is there any discharge from her nose or mouth, she seems to be pooping fine. I just dont know what's wrong and I really need some help from more experienced tortoise keepers!
