: My Russian Tortoise doesn't seem to like being above ground. I have her in a 20 gallon long tank with a deep substrate. She spends all her time digging around and only comes up when she's hungry. Is this normal?

does yours have access to outside. russians are pretty rambunctious and love to explore. they are very active and live climbing and digging. you might want to get a bigger enclosure (i wouldn't recommend glass, they don't seem very happy in there - that might be the problem). good luck
