Hi
my desert tortoise hibernated too long, and now has a soft shell. i had been keeping him under his vitalite for most of the afternoon/evening (in his inside terrarium), but my limited tortoise knowledge tells me to put him outside in his "dog house" with a shoe box opened up with a "door" and shredded paper for its floor. he can be in the sun (dog house shaded) or go into his box to stay out of any direct sunlight. maybe he need to see the herp vet. any help will be greatly appreciated.
Uno is 5 years old, approx.
