Hi, my 15month old Greek spur thigh is sleeping rather a lot.
She is eating and pooing etc. however I have noticed a difference in the poo. They are now smaller pellets.

I have read many contradicting views.
How long should the basking/uvb lamp be on for my spur thigh?

Thank you

Hi I have a 1 year old spurred thigh tortoise which came to live with me on Tuesday.
I am anxious as I have only seen him nibble a leaf plus when I peep at him In his sleeping area he makes a sort of snoring noise.
