Team desperate to find a cause:
Ajin - we have a 5 yr old sculata tortoise
The night have mid /low 40’s cold in California .
She is inside in insulated garage with heat lamp At night . Heat lamp is here refuge when she is cold .
Typical day eat some food , came out to visit gave her an apple and some cucumber . She likes a lot .
Today she was fine Afternoon warm bath time which she like to use for restroom . Soaked for about 30 mins. Did her business.
Then we took her out .
All of sudden out of nowhere she cannot use her front legs.?
Back leg only works.
Put her in her house under lamp, legs are not coming back.
I’m totally concerned and open for suggestions , comments .
She showed no implication there was something wrong before today.
I don’t believe she ate something strange.
