Hi burnt toast he does get around ok he's very fast his shell does drag on the floor but today he did seem to be lifting himself up slightly more, but as he is my first tortoise I'm not sure if this is how they all walk. I'll list what I have been doing and please feel free to advise me changing anything.
7am lamp on
8am get fresh dandilion leaves, mix with a bit of rocket and add a pinch of nutrobal (only a small pile though as I'm still wary of over feeding him)I will add more variety of food this is just what I have been doing the last few days. He seems to really enjoy it all and eats it all pretty fast.
4pm bathe (every other day I've been doin this)
5pm a few dandilion flowers as a treat
7pm lamp off and he goes sleep not long after.
I have been letting him out of his table for an hour to walk around and exercise in the living room he seems to enjoy this (there is no dangers around I just have wooden flooring, no wires that he can get to, I enjoy sitting and watching him anyway so he's not alone when he's free) When the weathers not so wet he will have access to my lawn area in the garden I just need to make him a hut.
