    Limited eating and barely active Russian

    Yikes! Worms sound so horrific. It’s possible that could be it though! So I’d need another vet visit basically. And definitely don’t think it’s bacterial no. She’s totally fine looking just not active or hungry ha. And we got the table from pet and tortoise world. So I think it’s treated to...

    We haven’t no, was just coco coir before. I haven’t seen her eat it, but it’s possible she has. She used to poop/pee and pass urates almost every time I bathed her. But the last time she passed in the bath was a week ago, and that was a very crumbly poop that disintegrated in the water...

    Alrighty. Have lowered the lamp. Just monitoring it to make sure it gets to the right temp under it atm. We don’t have a proper outside pen yet (that’s the next thing we will build/sort out) but I have let her wander around (supervised) in the garden. She mostly just looks for places to hide...

    Yeah, it is :) And maybe, she’s basicslly just been losing weight for a while now. We got the new table in mid April. So she’s pretty accustomed to it now. I think? You think because they like habits/familiar stuff that she might be stressed from that some still?

    Yeah? I’d seen 32-35c as about right for them. But can lower the lamp a tiny bit and keep an eye on the basking spot. She’s just buried in her bedroom 99% of the time really.

    Hiya We have a 2~ year old Russian that we were given by someone else as they travelled too much to care for her. We have had her since the start of March and she’s been in her new table for at least a couple of months now. She used to eat a lot (possibly too much as a vet recently said...
