Hello everyone!
I need some help, my Russian tortoise about 1 year old will NOT get up in the mornings unless i get her up, even after i get her up and put her next to her food she will eat a bit then, without basking, go back to bed in her half log hide. her basking spot is around 34C (93F) and 45% humidity and her cooler end is around 29C (84F) and 53 % humidity.
She gets fed watercress, dandelions, kale, with calcium powder every-other day, she gets bathed twice per week at the minimum, she lives in a tortoise table inside and goes outside when its hot, i live in England so its not hot alot!
She dose have a UVA/UVB tube light that is within 6inch of her when she out!
Her substrate is top soil.
If i dont wake her up then she will sleep ALL day and not eat or even come out at all.
Thanks for all the replys!
Harry
