Hello,,
I was wondering if this is okay or not??
and how should I treat this?!
When she gets into water the white thingy disappears but as soon as she gets dry that thing comes back:(
Sorry for the photo quality as I took it using my phone :)
@Yvonne G I will try tomorrow, but she either sleeps in the water or doesn't move, do I have to worry or is it okay?
and thanks btw! the name loves you back :D
How can I treat respiratory infections? Do I need to take the tort to the vet??
can you determine the species of the tort aswell?
The tortoise has a place to hide in and there's soil with some grass, and a flat plate that contains water
