Hi everyone!
I have a one year old marginated tortoise and today his urine looked shiny and slick to the touch.... please advise

Did it have white stuff in it?
If it happens again post a pic.
Could be urates or parasites.

The previous day there was white stuff.
I will and thanks for replying.

Urates are normal as long as they are not gritty/hard. They should be like tooth paste and smooth. If gritty you need to up the hydration.
