*Gut* flora lol.. I will be thinking of your boy and praying you get answers or he miraculously heals 💚🐢

Have you gotten a thermostat for your heat emitters? I noticed that even having Dilley's like 30" above his shell it was still like 105 on his hot side so I got the thermostat so that I can mimic perfect weather for him. Not a cure, but def something to look into. Also I recommend nutribac for...

Hi.. Very sorry I'm just seeing this. He is doing great. I decided to get some nutribac for reptiles to replenish his gut flora and a thermostat for my ceramic heat emitter until I finish his outdoor home. Thank you so much for checking on him.

I just wanted to say if I came across rude in any way, I am very sorry. I appreciate everyone's comments. Some of my introduction may have been confusing bc I had copied most of it from my FB post and had to edit it.

Thank you, I truly appreciate the advice. I def won't be taking him again unless things start to get worse. I will def let y'all know if anything bizarre starts to happen.

Awe, thank you. Yes amazing turn around today. I'm so happy that this treatment is doing it's job so far. Clear urine, very, very active, and has ate all of his food. Eyes look beautiful too. Very blessed. It has cost like $800 in vet bills and finall Okay, thank you so much. I will def make...

Will cleaning everything with F10 and a steam cleaner keep it sanitized? Also as far as him grazing outdoors, can I spread some food grade DE?

Thank you! Yes definitely. I have always researched his stuff since I got Dilley. Update today he is doing amazing, eyes look great, active, eating, and active. Lol.

Yes, thank you. I did think this was life or death when I saw red stain on a dark teal sheet. That got me out the door. I'm happy to say today it is clear, he is very active, and eating great.

It is getting spring here now and won't get cold again until like Dec. or Jan. He will be transitioning outside this year bc he just became the appropriate size.

Hi. We live in Alabama so I may have 2-3 months of weather that he can't be out in. But on days even like 60 I take him out for exercise and I play with him a lot and have him a lot of enrichment items. I have him in a home made wooden enclosure that is 7ftlx5ftw5ft high to hold in heat. I have...

Thank you. Yeah we definitely need some that have learned from some tort-xperts.

Just wanted to share my experience and see what y'all think. I had a scare earlier and immediately ran him to the vet. First of he is 2 years old and 13 pounds diet consist of grasses and weeds, then Mazuri and greens 2 times a week. He had been having very dark purplish red urine the past...

I guess he'd say the same about Dilley. Darn I wish that these vets would've studied in wildlife biology which goes over amphibians and reptiles anatomy and the whole 9 yards. He has taken every bit of correct care and knowledge and tried to flip it. He needs to catch up on what's real. He will...
