Oh no, im really sorry to hear that. When we got our tortoise we got two, one we knew was already not well but the owner didnt have the time or money to invest in treaments so we took her to the vets and spent £1000, they did all they could for her but she hadnt eaten or drank for some time and...
Update- took my tort to the vets today, she has x-rayed her and she has a possible blockage so she is having to have a feeding tube fitted. They are hoping it will then unblock but could take up to 6 weeks and hundreds of pounds to treat. Has anyone had this issue with their tortoise before?
Yes i soak mine everyday, she certainly doesnt look dehydrated but isnt weeing very much. She is still only eating a few mouthfuls a day. All she wants to do is either come out of her table and run around like a mad thing or hide away from her lights.
Thats good to hear. Unfortunately its still pretty rainy here so my tort still isnt eating well..few mouthfuls a day. All she wants to do really is run around the house like a mad thing or hide in her bedroom. She does not want to go under her heat and uv lamp at all
Hi all,
At the moment my horsefield tort isnt eating very well and is sleeping quite a lot. I have a feeling it may be to do with the weather even though the temp in her tort table is the same as normal. Is anybody else experiencing this?
