Thats why I dont understand. His shell wasnt soft until a couple days ago and his food is dusted about 4 times a week and i feed him plenty of mushrooms which are loaded in vitamin D. and his light is UVB. But he hasnt been eating so he isnt recieving either for about a or so. Ive thought about...

ok so Pete recently hasnt been eating and as of a few days ago he won't open his eyes. Hes become lethargic and his shell is soft (not shell rot i checked) Im afraid its because he has not been eating. He has soil and coconut husk in his habitat which is kept at about 85. I keep his humidity up...
