I just got a baby Russian tortoise today. He digs burrows and stays there instead of going into his hiding place. Will he suffocate or get hurt? I took him out once because I got worried but he went back in a few minutes later. I'm sure he's fine but I just want to double check with you guys.
In the attached picture, the tortoise is under the substrate and sphagnum moss.
