Thanks for the reply.

Yes, this is my first tortoise. I have researced a ton and heard about behavior, but you truly don't know until you have one for a while and see it yourself.

I have been working on the humidity as of late and I have a cover on the enclosure and Spag Moss in the hide. The humidity is good now so I hope to see an improvement. He is active in terms of movement when out. He does go around and search with his head out and moving around. I am feeling better about his habits and I know the eating will come around. According to my meters the Heat is 86-87 in the hide and 76 in the far cool side. Humidity is 90% in the hide. I hope this will do the trick.

Thanks!
