Bubbles

A tortoise or turtle with bubbles coming out of its nose has a respiratory infection. That tortoise or turtle probably needs to see a vet.

Keep it slow and steady.

Nope!

Don't worry your tortoise isn't sick. Mine does that alot too and I've put it down to him jus breathing whilst I hold him or he does the same head bobbing thing when he has a drink as well, so he may just be swallowing. Hope this helps.
