red footed tortoise
hi, I've just received my tortoise about 4-5 days ago and im kinda curious, his eyes are really watery… I've been soaking him 3 times a day for about 10 min each thinking he might be dehydrated but i never see him DRINK the water. Is there any way to get him to drink? He is really active and has a nice shell, just watery eyes. He also had runny poop when i got him but thats passed.
Also, if i wanted to get him like vet checkups, how often would i need to go? Yearly... monthly?
