If you haven't had a fecal done on the tortoise, you should.
It is always a good idea with a new tortoise no matter where the animal came from.

If you are providing all that humidity you might try going the other way in that you should provide dry areas for the tortoise to escape the humidity.



>>I have him on eco earthwhich i just put in 3 days ago so it id still very damp which I spray if it starts to dry out. He also gets soaked everyday in warm H2O....What else can I do. Can this be a sign of parasites? I really want to help this little guy get better! Thanks a lot.
