So, I purchased a new tortoise from tortoise town and after almost a week of trying to contact them they finally got back to me as they am sitting in the Vets waiting room. I’ve had Rocket now 6 days and he’s very lethargic, not eating, won’t move from his basking area, clogged nostrils. We are soaking him daily now in strained carrots and water. Humidity in the enclosure is at 80%, basking heat 95-105, cool side 85 degrees. Substrate eco earth coconut fiber and repta-bark in a concrete mixing tub that I covered. Has a humid hide with sphagnam moss and a separate dry hide. Feeding cactus, dark leafy greens with calcium supplement. Can’t really get him out in the sun because of the weather here. I give this info because the breeder is giving me different advice. I’m attaching what they said and wondering if there is any validity to their reply to me. Thanks.
