behaviour change
Posted: 01/08/2014 by maggiec

hi-  I have a spur tortoise which has been with me in an en closed garden for over 50 years hibernates himself every oct/nov in the garden and reappears early spring.  I have had to move house recently and my tortoise has been being looked after by another neigh bour with an enclosed garden an d is fed exactly the same diet as before.  His behavour has changed   he is destroying her plants and wants to climb by balancing upright on the end of his shell.  can a move upset their well being?
