    Cream colour developing around scutes

    I posted on here a while back about little Blast and got some advice on raising him, which I have followed and generally he's doing a lot better, he's gained weight and has a monsterous appetite. His plastron also feels pretty solid at this point. However I'm concerned about the colour...

    Update on Blastoise (need feeding tips)

    Hey there, cactus pads haven't arrived yet, but he's been doing alright, hasn't lost any weight but hasn't gained any, seems he's gaining a bit of an appetite though. We pooled our money and bought him a super fancy humidifier which he seems to absolutely love. We have his conditions perfect and...

    ps. His hide is heated, and we made sure the heat mat is above him so he's getting it from above and not below as ppl said that's important

    The basking spot is already that temp, and we have a heater running to make sure the temps stay above 80F now. Thank you so much!

    Wow that is quite the story, at least they're doing better now! I'm so glad that you managed to save them. Yeah vets, especially where I live, are not really experts on reptiles of any kind. Thank you so much though! Have found some cactus pads and will be ordering them in as soon as I get...

    Update on Blastoise (need feeding tips)

    Ah ok, that makes sense, well we're feeding him dandelion and kale now, will be getting more foods yet. The bulb is a uvb uva heat combi bulb. Will try to put the calcium on thinner. Ok, will unblock the hide. I understand that but I'm willing to do anything to try and rescue him if...

    Well, he's gained weight and is eating now again all of a sudden... Ok, thank you so much!! I will get that powder and start bathing him longer. Will also see if I can find those foods anywhere.

    Update on Blastoise (need feeding tips)

    Hey there guys, So, obviously it's been a few weeks, we have made changes to his enclosure and overall he's seeming a lot healthier, his eyes look less sunken, his skin looks less dry, and his plastron has even hardened a bit. As well as this his egg tooth is now gone. However it is quite...

    Egg tooth still after 6 months?

    Hey guys, its been a couple days, hes eating more, and he finally pooped in his bath, and hes a bit more active, I hope this is a good sign. We have started to bath him everyday and the humidity is consistently above 90% in his enclosure. Does he look any better? I don't know, maybe its too...
