I recently changed my setup a bit by that I mean I moved some plants on different locations and also put the water dish on the hot side... is it normal that after I change something my tort goes insane for 3-4 days and walks the perimeter fast ?
It almost seems like he's pissed that I changed the setup but after a few days he accepts it...

This is a timely thread for me to be reading ... I just changed Darwin's enclosure totally, and he is alternating between exploring every inch and taking breaks to (swear to god) glare at me thorough the glass.

He's going: "Where am I? This isn't my territory..."
