i’m really really concerned about my DBT– all she does is sleep all day, i don’t see her eating too often, and now her bottom shell (i’m sorry, i’m terrible at turtle anatomy, her ‘belly’ shell–) seems really,really soft! her top shell is soft too.. what’s wrong? do i have too much water in her tank? she’s always on dry land, which is just aquarium gravel, do i need to put some dirt or bigger rocks in? i have a Energy Savers Full spectrum reptile Super UV daylight bulb, 3% UVB and 7 % UVA, is that enough? it’s 15 watts, is that too little? i’m really really stressed about her…

also, she won’t eat food sticks or little bugs that she used to eat. could it be she needs more calcium? i’ve tried getting her to eat the sticks but she just won’t… should i take her to a vet?
