Lethargic EBT

mdterp Apr 19, 2008 05:14 PM

My EBT is acting a bit lethargic lately. Around mid afternoon(3 p.m.) he goes under a propped up piece of wood and buryies himself a tiny tiny bit. It's not like it's cold today it was in the low 80's. What could be wrong?

I don't think this sounds like abnormal behavior. My turtles take naps all the time Unless you see other signs like no appetite, weight loss, abnormally long soaking, puffy eyes- I would not worry about it. But you are there-it is your turtle and you know it's habits. If you think something is wrong-take it to a vet. Tess
