So someone kept these two RT's in their basement for about ten years. The female is larger and can only move her front legs, she just drags the rest of her body. The male is now separated from her and spends every waking minute trying to get out of his outdoor enclosure. He doesn't even stop to eat!
They have never had their beaks or nails trimmed, although I have been doing my research and doing what I can as I locate a reptile vet. My plea for help is finding ways to rehab the female who has been so bullied by the male her whole life that she rarely comes out of her shell. I have found a good home for the male since he seems healthier. How can I help the female? Her nails are shorter now, she eats daily, and seems to enjoy her bath. I can't get her to move unless she's in the warm water. Do you think she can be brought back to health (if she ever was healthy)? I will do my best to attach photos of them here as well, she's the one in the grass. Appreciate any and all suggestions!
