he's doing the opposite of what I posted now he's giving me panic attacks I've gone to check on him and he's been on his back twice under his light I've lowered that right down I'm just panicking all the time the only good thing is he's giving me exercise walking up n down my stairs every 5 mins to check on him I think he's trying to climb up the wall which is 'tortoise escape proof' n thinking he can get over then toppling backwards 
), you think you have rectified the first problem by lowering the lighting? As to the always on the back, I have these three little sulcatas and one of them is always getting into situations were he ends up on his back. Even after all these years of being around tortoises, I still panic at the sight.
he kept me awake till 1.30am making noises trying to escape its a good job I love him so much when I found him on his back the first time he wasn't moving to try n get himself back over he just lay there then I found him like it twice again, can big tortoises flip themselves back over? He's not that big but he just didn't seem to b trying. I'm going to be panicking about him all day who would have thought a little thing like him could make u so worried
