We got a call from the vet this morning that he is looking around and opening his eyes. A lot more curious. The swelling in his limbs have gone down. They were going to let him rest and tube feed him tonight
Unfortunately the next call we got in the afternoon was Bowser passed away. I’m...
He is staying the night at a specialist. They think he has septicemia and anemia on top of being small for his size and having puffiness on his body. Crossing my fingers for my Bowser
I would say the mucus is clear with a hint of yellow. Kinda looks like when you blow your nose to be honest.

@TammyJ Sorry...

Thank you for your reply! I will change the bulb. I should have been more in depth with the temperature. The temp gun says 96 in the basking spot currently while his cooler area is 81. I will get some piedialyte. We have been doing carrot soaks too!
Hi everyone! Would like some idea on how to help my 5 month old Sulcata. We left to go on a vacation for 4 days and came back to my tortoise Bowser not eating and being lethargic. The only energy we get is when we soak him and he’s pooped. Thinking he might constipated. Humidity never hit below...
