I just got my tortoise 2 days ago and finally pooped but when I saw it it was like solid in the middle but it was still runny. Is that bad? Thanks! :tort:

Could be from the diet your tortoise was being feed before you got it. I would give it a few days and see if it hardens up with a good diet.

Hi Haydabear (did we ever learn your name?):

It has been my experience that Russian tortoise poop is pretty UGH! My Russians are only grazing animals. I never give them anything to eat. Yet their poop is firm but wet and pretty stinky.
