Hi- so i just adopted my new russian male tort and i have already discovered so much about him in one week. However i have so many questions and un sure of a few things he does. He has been peeing like almost every single time i take him out of his cage. Hes in a 40 gallon with the glass covered and shows no probs like bumping into the sides- he has a uvb and a uva light a basking one and sand mixed underneath his wood chips. he really enjoys soft things, like blankets, pillows, etc. ive had him for a week now and i can only get him to eat spring mix, and leaves/ weeds outside. He says no to carrots,apple, kale, tomatoes... But he poops everyday and more than once! He leaves turds everywhere!! Im un sure of his age or anything right now!! Any help would be soo appreciated!!
Also he is very easy going and rubs his head and neck up against mine, he will fall asleep on my shoulder or chest- he does a lot of them puffing sounds when i try to feed him something he doesn't like- he just loves to run around the whole upstairs and discover new things, also his one front claw is longer than the rest and kinda pointy so when he walks its like he walks on the point and u can hear it on the floor- his front claws arent as easy as the back to see the quick ... :/
He has already pooped 5 times today- nothing white- just lil brown turdlets :/ sounds silly but true??!
Cally- russian tort
Any suggestions would help?! Also i literally just downloaded this app when looking up my questions online so idk if I'm doing it correctly lol/ embarrassing- it said to introduce myself before asking questions so i guess i prolly shoulda started with that- my name is cally im 23 yrs old and live in ohio- yes i kno its rough to keep my russian perfectly happy here :/ but i literally just adopted my russian one week ago and his name is Kale
