usually when you have a healthy tortoise, their eyes are quite shiny and their nose is quite smooth, but if your tortoise is sneezing, squeeking or has a yellow nose you should seek medical attention, just to be safe
Contrary to popular belief, turtles are actually pretty active. If your turtle isn't moving, even when you touch it or pick it up then it is likely to be a sign it is sick or has died.
Well its realy qiute simple if your turle cant breathe it's dead, if it can it's still alive.

In 1991 our family had a tortoise and the family dog bit a hole in it's shell. Actually, two. We took the tortoise to a friend who cleaned the holes and applied plaster-of-paris. For years the tortoise had the plaster cast on it, and as the tortoise grew, pieces of the plaster would come off. All these years later, the plaster is completely gone, and the tortoise has a beautiful shell. You can't even tell that it ever had a problem.

you tell how old a tortoise by counting the square like things on its shell.Correction: - The above information is incorrect, it is an old wives tale. In short, unless you know when a tortoise was born it is almost impossible to determine it's age.

Different species of tortoise should not be kept together. While it is unlikely that they would object to each other, there is a problem with the fact that different species of tortoise have different bacteria in their gut. The bacteria from one species can be dangerous to another. You say you keep your tortoise in a tank, please note that this is not a healthy environment for a tortoise. They should be kept in an outdoor enclosure, weather permitting, and on a tortoise table at other times. Visit www.tortoisetrust.org or www.tortoisefirst.com for more information.
This could be a sign of infection in your tortoise, or a symptom of internal cancer (depending upon your tortoise's age and health status). Regardless of the cause, loose faeces are not healthy and can result in your tortoise becoming dehydrated, which can be fatal if severe or prolonged enough. You may want to consult your veterinarian about treatment options for your tortoise as well.
