Hello,
I have had a male Russian Tortoise for around a week now and have him indoors for now as I live in Cincinnati, OH and it gets cold this time of year. At first he would just sleep and not do anything. Lately he finally started eating some greens and is awake and more active during the day. I have a small water dish he was soaking in and pooped in. Now the poop is white and I did not see any trace of parasites or worms or anything, but is the color supposed to be this way? Thanks for any help.

Also I was in the chat room recently and was "kicked out" and have not been allowed to return, but I am not certain if there is just a problem with the interface. I emailed the user in charge and have yet to receive anything other than an automated email.
