I have a juvenile elongated tortoise with excellent weight and great appetite. The stool, however, is consistently very wet and compared to the other tortoises I have, is very foul. Is this related to diet? Is this normal for this species?

Probably some protozoan flagellates. Treat with Metronidizole (Flagyl).
