Hi
It does not look overweight but does not look like its getting what it needs. Please post a pic of your enclosure and provide the details on your temps and what you are feeding. Give the link below a through read, your tort appears to be very dry do you soak?

I did not mock you I simply provided you with a care sheet to read and made a comment that your tort looks dry. You chose to take offense, don't ask questions on this forum if you are not prepared for the feed back. Good luck.
