Hello,
I got my tortoise, Atlas, at a reptile shop along with his tortoise table, heat lamp, heat mad, soil substrate, water dish and vitamin powder containing calcium and vitamin D3. He is a 2017 Hatchling and came with a microchip. He is very active and loves to scratch at the corners, he paces up and down one side of the table and is eating a lot. I have been feeding him mostly curly kale with water cress, carrots and cucumber mixed in, it is also sprinkled with a vitamin power. I bathed him last night and he peed in the bath which contained urates, I emptied it as soon as it happened and gave him clean bath water, he was very active after the bath. But today he hasn't been very active, he didn't sleep in his indoor section during the night and he hasn't walked around as much, he has still had a little roam. He has been in and out of the indoor section sleeping. He has been eating a lot and been under the light for most of the day.
is there something I'm doing wrong? Tips are welcome
P.s. I say he but his gender is unknown
