I’ve had my baby tortoise for about 2 months already, so they are used to their enclosure by now. They are about 4-5 months old now. I’ve noticed that they used to be pretty active, moving all over their enclosure and eating normally, but now, they are sleeping most of the day and only awake when they are eating their food. They tend to go to one spot right under the basking light and sleep there for the rest of the day, unless I wake them up. They are a lot less active than usual. I am not sure if this is normal behavior because they look healthy just looking at their appearance. I know that baby tortoises sleep more than adults but I’m not sure if they should be more active.
basking spot - 95 F
Warm side - 80 - 87 F
Cool side - 70 - 75 F
