Squirt appears to be weeing a lot. She has done since i got her but in her enclosure. I know this as when i sorted it out the other week there were wet patches on the wood under the substrate!
However this past week she's wee'd in the living room, last night she wee'd whilst i was holding her and today she's wee'd in her feed bowl.
It looks perfectly normal wee, however when you clean it up there is quite a smell to it.
If it were human i'd say it was a normal smell, however she's a tortoise so i don't know.
She doesn't smell in her cage and like i said you can't smell it till you've cleared it up or it's on your own hand!
Just wanted to make sure this is normal, or whether or not she needs a trip to the vets. Rather than take her to the vets to find out its completely normal.
She's eating just fine. I'm working on the finely chopped weeds with veg and this appears to be getting her to eat more weeds. She's active as normal - in fact more so than when i first got her as she's not as shy now.
She's put on a little bit of weight, not a noticeable amount but when i weighed her the other day she was a little heavier than when i got her. She's also a centimeter or so longer.
Her poo looks fine and there appears to be a normal amount - not pooing to much or anything that would raise concerns from me in that area.
