Hello i have been dreading making this thread because i am to afraid my 3 month old hatchling (Pebbles) will have HFS. so i read tom's thread about HFS and i feel like Pebbles has all the symptoms. "his appetite drops a little and he hides or sleeps a little more. Then the shell starts feeling a little softer than you remember. Then the eyes don't want to open and the lethargy really sets in. Eating stops or is greatly reduced. Usually the hatchling has barely grown." the breeder is a super nice guy and i met him at the reptile expo (this tortoise was not an impulse buy i did lots of research before i got him/her) he was very busy so i waited to ask some questions until email he replied to all my questions except for the one regarding HUMIDITY so i got very worried because he is leaving like the most important part of a hatchling care so if he was raised in a open aired enclose do you guys think he has HFS the breeder wont tell me if he was or was not so i cant really say. i am very nervous that this is HFS because i heard there is no cure to HFS and eventually they will just die and i love him so much i cant just know he will soon die .
pleas help in anyway!
