So I am a newbie and I have had my torts for only 15 days but I don't know what it means when a tortoise sits on another tortoise. They both are about a year old and were together when I got them. Dotty weighs about 182 grams and Poppy weighs about 118 grams. I don't really know their gender, I just named them that way. So far I have caught Dotty sitting on Poppy three times in two days. I thought they were playing, but my mom thinks Poppy is being bullied. I put a cardboard divider down the middle of their 20 gallon tank. Poppy is sleeping right now, but Dotty seems agitated. She is walking around in circles and has black around her mouth. My mom thinks Dotty has been eating poop! That's just gross! Dotty seems angry.
What do I do? Should I keep them seperated? I want to do the best for Poppy. She needs to grow and get bigger. Help!
