I moved my tortoise into a new indoor enclosure on Saturday and he hasn't eaten since I put him in there Normally he eats like crazy! I'm so worried and I don't know what happened?! Is it normal for them to take a few days to adjust?

Okay I mean it's only been one full day of him not eating but it's just so unusual! How long does it take them to start eating again?

DON'T worry! Torts do take time to adapt and adjust. I have experienced this myself, after which things went back to normal.

Good luck.

A couple of days without food isn't life threatening. Your tortoise is probably just getting used to the environment. And once it knows its surroundings, it will eat xx
