That way you don't go into this will pre-conceived notions like you did on the first visit........You didn't get ripped off. Properly diagnosing any kind of internal parasites takes 30-60 days of constant Fecals every other day or so.......Not just one or two here and there.......
ahh ok. thanks for the info!

Erica, The normal new member with one tortoise has probably never heard the word Parasitology. Maybe it would help if you didnt talk down to people
