Thank you for all the advice

Should I put him back in here when he is not exercising?

Also, He has been in tortoise table for about a year now. I again read at his age, he doesn’t need as much humidity. Oh why didn’t I ask you guys 😫

I always tried the original. I would try to put it in with food I always fed him and he would eat around it. I must not have given it enough time. I was so worried that he wouldn’t eat.
