Hi,
My girlfriend found one of my redfoot tortoises flipped over in his water dish earlier today. She flipped him over and tried to give him some strawberry (which he normally loves) but he wouldn't move much or eat any. I'm not sure exactly how long he was on his back.
I checked on him a right away when I got home from work and he was sprawled out with his head all the way out and resting on the ground.
His eyes are open and I've seen him move all of his limbs but he seems like he is too weak to himself anywhere.
Is my little guy in serious trouble? Is it possible that he is exhausted from trying to flip over? Any input is appreciated!
