Hi everyone,
I'm Bryce, and I got my first tortoise almost two weeks ago, so I am new to this forum.
I bought a baby Sulcata, and named them Trix. Partly because the gender is unknown. Yes, I am aware that it will grow to be huge, and I do have some land.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post a health question, but I really want to know what is going on.
When I picked Trix out, he/she was the largest of the group, and I saw them eat and move around quite well, so they seemed healthy.
After I brought Trix home, they didn't move much for the first couple of days. Then they began to move more, but still would not eat anything for a few more days. Now Trix is eating daily and seems active, but I have only seen poop in the cage once out of two weeks.
Is this a problem?
What can I do about it?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
