Hi
my radiated tortoise has been with me for 4 years , I think it’s around 5 or 6 years old . It’s been growing steady.

Starting in Jan or Feb this year, I noticed Sometimes there’s vomited food in the enclosure, but not in large amount. It’s appetite was great and poops looks normal .

since June , I noticed that he starting only interested in lettuce/ mazuri tortoise pellet or aquatic turtle food . The amount of food consumes reduced a lot .Couple weeks ago I observed that after a long drink , he started vomiting out everything right after . It happened again today .
The white new growth line also starts fading away , and weight has been staying around 1350g for a while .

do you think it might be caused by blockage? Or parasite? He’s in outdoor pen during the day . I found him chewing on a snail then spitted out on July 3 .

I did soak him this week and the poop looks normal .
