Hey guys,
It is with great heartache that I need to let go of my beloved cherry head red foot tortoise. I've had him since he was a hatchling for about 3 years and unfortunately I need to give him up due to the moving situation. My new landlord does not allow any sorts of pets in the house and I...
They are smooth with the shell around them it seems to me that the white spots are under top few layers of the bottom of his shell if that makes sense. I got betadine yesterday and started applying anti fungal cream with clotrimazole.
I can see how I have been keeping the substrate too wet for him, I was just worried that I wouldn't get the humidity high enough. As for the betadine I was told to not use it too much because it has something to do with the growth of white blood cells? Anything about the white spots on his shell?
So the yellow circle is the top part of the shell that came off, the red parts are the white spots on the shell that to my under standing are from too much calcium? Does that make sense to anyone? Also provided is a link to my previous thread just to show you how the shell condition has...
Hey guys, I'm a new owner of a baby cherry head. Today I noticed that when I gently rub the bottom of his shell his shell comes off with it. He's about 8 months old. I previously thought he might have shell rot but its not spreading so I think I'm done worrying about that for now. Any idea why...
RE: redfoots and mushrooms
I never thought that they would like mushrooms but after reading this thread and offering it to little Abe he can't stop eating them! Thank you for your advice!!!!
Its more like the the first one. The reason why I'm asking is because he has white spots on his shell I thought it might be fungal or some other issue. Thank you for your advice!!!
Hey guys,
about a week and a half ago I got a little Cherry Head Red Foot Tortoise. Best purchase ever =). I'm happy to say that he's starting to get more active: eating more and basking. I have been taking the little dude outside whenever the weather was warm enough. I still have a couple of...
Hey guys, I had my little guy for about 5 days now. I think he might have shell rot but he seems to be very inactive. He hides in the cool end of the tort table and doesnt come out much unless i take him out in the morning so he could eat. He does have an appetite but I'm worried that he might...
Hey guys so I have had this little guy for maybe about a week. I initially posted the pictures under introduction, concerned that my little guy has shell rot. That the first picture. The second one is a week later after trying to stop the rot. Some one mentioned to use betadine and anti fungal...
