Hi! Im a new member on here, but I have been reading the information and taking advice from you guys for about a year. However, now I have a question of my own. My leopard tortoise is 5 months old and barely eats and sleeps most of the time. And by sleep I mean its just stays in it's hiding spot with his head a little out and eyes open. I only got her a couple days ago so i feel she might still be adjusting and scared. But I just wanted to run my setup by you guys to make sure I was doing everything right and it wasn't something I did making her this way!
Setup:
Tortoise table with topsoil and sphagnum moss. The sphagnum moss is mostly on the side where the Mvb bulb is located and is always moist. I also have many wild flowers and lettuce growing in there.
Temps:
90-95 under basking spot
70-75 on the cool side
Never drops below 70 at night
The MVB bulb is on for 14 hours
Humidity:
typically between 50-68, i use a humidifier. There is also a humid hide box that is usually between 70-80.
soaking:
I soak her once a day in warm water for about 15 minutes, and after I try to feed her.
I'd be happy to hear if theres anything I should change!
