It seems that my tortoise is coming out of its hiding place a lot later in the day than it used to... it often sits at the entrance then finally comes out mid day or in the afternoon... it is definitely active and if I put my hand in the tank while it is sitting near its hiding spot it rapidly (very quickly) turns around and runs into the spot where it hides which is half of a plastic container cut in half with rocks and repti-bark over it to keep it dark inside...
It seems alert when picked up, doesnt seem too shy has its head out also when picked up, drinks when soaked, eats etc.(altho not as much as it seemed to in the summer) it is just that it doesn't seem as active.
It is indeed a gopher tortoise thats all you need to know...
thx
