i have a sulcata tortoise and lately its been acting differently ( it is a 9,5 cm sulcata tortoise ) she used to sleep well, eats a lot and looking healthy but a couple weeks ago i bought a new place for my tortoises and I dropped her a few days ago, since then shes been acting strange, she doesn’t want to sleep at day and doesn’t move and eat as much as she used to, she just stay at one place and doesn’t move or sleep. PLS i’ve been feeling sad about it, is it because i dropped her or because of something else. I NEED YOUR HELPP

More info needed.
How far did she drop?
What did she get dropped on?
What is the enclosure temps, basking, night, all over, and what is the humidity?
How big is the enclosure?
What is the diet?
How big is she, how old?

Her eyes seem to be distressed looking.
I would do warm soaks for 30 mins once a day, and monitor her a little more. The questions @wellington asked will help us identify some possible adjustments.

You mention that you bought a new place for your tortoise, Can you specify this a bit more?
