Hi. I have a small red foot tort that doesnt eat or really do anything except sleep. I have everything set up right with lighting and heat and humidity. But he wont eat. When I first brought him home he would eat what I gave him. Romaine lettuce, cantelope but now nothing. We have rabbit pellets on the ground. He lays around and when we put him in water he will open his eyes and act alive with eyes open but then soon falls back to sleep. He acts strong and healthy but not eating. He Poops about once a day so it would seem like he is eating but not. If he poops he has to be eating right??? I am worried about him. Any suggestions? Is this normal? Will he just start eating? Thank you for your responses in advance! Cheryl
