I brought two young tortoises (I Don't really know the breed of them) a few days ago but they arn't eating or drinking! I'm really worried because they smell funny and are mostley sleeping. Am I giving them the wrong food? Help!

Know Your Pet
by: Shelly

First of all, you need to know what type of tortoises you have. A tortoise can grow to be from a few inches long to almost five feet long. Each type of tortoise has special needs.

Go back to the place you got the tortoise and get more information.

In the mean time, improper lighting might be a problem. And you might be right that you have not giving the right food.

I strongly suggest you read this ebook. You need a lot of help to get your tortoises set up properly and cared for properly.

Keep it slow and steady.
