Hello!
Im worried about my red foot tortoise. Herman has been acting lazy and always in its hide. I follow the feeding guidelines of redfoots.com and everything. My temp is at 80-85 and I try to keep it humid as possible (ranging from 78-85%). All my tortoise does is hide either in its hide or under the substrate (long fibered spag moss). Herman sometimes wont even touch his food.
He also wont poop without me bathing him. Ill take him outside to roam around in the backyard or front yard but Herman just tries to hide. I keep its tank very moist and I bath him once a day so Herman doesnt dehydrate.
I have a 20gallon tank that has a hide, pothos plants and a water dish that is always filled with water.
Is there something wrong with my little guy or am I just a worry wart?!
