Hope it goes ok. please do consider changing that woodchip. We've all seen the consequences over the years so we don't say it lightly. People say oh my tortoise won't eat it, he likes it, he has never touched it with his mouth, but they can and usually do at some point. I know another change may put little one back a bit but better that than swallow by boredom, hunger or mistake and blow up inside. it is far too risky and as lynn says we've all seen the wobble legs and can bearly walk longer term because when young their muscles don't get the strength built up on wood chip. It is heartbreaking. good luck I am sure he is in safe hands , CB
