I bought a baby Greek from my tortoisestore.com
I know, not the best idea, but I've worked very hard to make sure Zeus is happy and healthy regardless of his start.
After a rough week of him refusing to eat right after arrival, he has perked up considerably. He seems to be doing well-- eating and basking and exploring his palace, but I want to be sure he is ok. He's growing well, shell seems to be smooth and firm (I don't press it, don't worry).
What things should I be looking for to make sure he's ok? Should I take his stool to a vet for routine check?
I would feel much better if he were from a trusted breeder and have learned from my mistake, but I will also do everything I can to make sure he is healthy and happy!
Thanks again!
