Unhappy Poorly Tortoise

Hi I'm looking for some advice, my 4 year old Horsfield tortoise George has been acting a bit strange the past few days, he wont come out of his wee house unless we take him out, he's not eating very much, and he isnt opening his eyes a lot.

I have been bathing him every day in lukewarm water, and he ate some grated cucumber and dandielion yesterday - but he doesn't seem to want to bask under his heat lamp and is hiding away under any shade he can get.

The weather has been warm the last couple of days (unusual for Scotland!!), and I'm wondering if he's just a bit unsettled because of this, however he has lost around 4g in a month (now weighing in at 100g exactly).

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Steph (and George)
