Hi.Im new to the site and looking for help.We have had our tortoise,Elvis, for about a yr and for the most part his has been healthy and happy and growing.We changed his living area and added a chameleon to the top of the enclosure several weeks ago.It seems since this change hes gone downhill..He isnt moving, eating or even opening his eyes.Normally when i took him outside he would become extremely active and eat various flowers from the yard..Elvis isnt eating or moving at all really.His bottom shell is softer than normal and has some pinkish/red discoloring on underside
After researching this site i have moved him back to previous cage and started babyfood/calcium soaks..because I think the calcium/uva/uvb deficiency may be the problem.Im a new owner(+1yr)& dont have knowledge on whats happening. Plz help a concerned mom out,as we dont want him to suffer or die! THX IN ADVANCE
