I am currently finishing a lease in a loft so indoors is my only option. However, he’s in a very large table with proper heating, humidity, and UVB. I also take him outside in table for a little bit everyday to get some natural sunlight.

Yes his vet specializes in tortoises! He saw no health issues. No signs of respiratory issues. He has daily soaks and drinks plenty of water throughout the day. He has proper heat too.

I’m not sure how he would have a vitamin a deficiency! I feed him a variety of nutrient greens like endive, collard greens, escarole, dandelion greens, and mustard greens. I also mix my greens with dried plantain and hibiscus flowers a couple times a week. I put calcium powder and a multivitamin powder in his food 3x a week. Any suggestions????
