Need help

I posted on here a couple days ago about a tortoise that came onto my property and have been taking care of it until the owner can be contacted. I noticed that he has been sleeping mostly during the day and is only active early morning and evening since taking him to get scanned for a microchip. The first day he was very active. He didn’t eat much yesterday and today but I did find some poop this morning. Is this normal? Should I be concerned? I would really like to make sure this guy gets back to his owners alive.

Edit: I forgot to mention, I live in Vegas and it is currently 98 degrees right now

Update on found desert tortoise

Update on this torti from yesterday: https://www.reddit.com/r/tortoise/s/Vx7XEwXgC2

I took him to the vet to get scanned for a chip and he has one! We tried contacting the place that administered the microchip (since the info wasn’t updated) but they’re closed today. So I’ll be hanging onto him for the meantime.

I bought him leafy greens and he ate a bit of it. Unfortunately, our gardeners were just here so we’re a bit lacking on the weeds. Also I just took my pup out to potty and the torti kept following us around. He would get really close to us if we didn’t move. Does this mean he likes us? I have no idea what he’s thinking. Lmao hopefully I can get him back home.

Found desert tortoise

This tortoise strolled onto my driveway and was following me around so I brought him(?) into my backyard for now. I posted about it to find the owner but no ones claimed him so far. If i end up keeping him how often do they need feeding and do they drink water? I’ve offered him water but wasn’t interested. Can you tell if this is a boy or girl and about how old?

Not sure if this is the correct sub to post this on but how do you organize clothes that aren’t clean but aren’t dirty? How do I organize it without like putting it on my chair or something? Doesn’t feel right to just put it back
