Yes he is very active. He is always walking and exploring and coming in and out of his cave. When he gets a drink of water he likes to stick his entire head under the water to gulp it down. It cracks me up!
You needn't worry. The little tortoise looks quite healthy. You will find that they don't always gain weight every week. Sometimes they seem to "plateau" at a given weight for a week or two, then start gaining again.
Only up a couple grams. But he is definitely getting longer it seems. He is so playful and fat less fearful now and loves stretching that neck out to check everything out.
@Scubaroo I would not call that "not quick". Your little guy has gained 15 g in a month. For a 50g tortoise that is 30% gain. That is very nice growth.
