    When handling the tortoises, we always use gloves, and we individually rinse off each tortoise before putting them back into their enclosure. I have a designated room where only the tortoises are kept, with regulated temperature and humidity. We switch our shoes when entering the room...

    ANIMAX Ointment

    Hello, Is Animax Ointment Safe for tortoises? My tortoises have recently exhibited yellow bumps on their neck and the tortoises were taken to a vet and prescribed ANIMAX ointment two times a day. Is this safe for tortoises? Thank you so much, Montana
