Hi everyone
So my Russian tortoise- Chompy- who had been very sleepy for a week has now gone a bit insane. He nonstop, literally nonstop, runs around his tank, tries to climb the walls.... more than he ever has before. And he is super fast and never seems to run out of energy. He only stopped to eat. I always feel bad for him so I take him out to walk around my house (I would take him outside but it is ridiculously hot here in California). When he walks around the floor he is still very energetic but calms down a bit. When I can't watch him anymore, I put him back in his tank and he starts getting very crazy again. I tried many things to make it stop, like turning off the lights/heat lamp, giving him a bath, feeding him different foods, etc. I don't know if Chompy is a girl or boy yet. This all has been going on everyday for about a week now.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you so much
