Hi Tom will get a pic over getting Barry Friday.
I went there yesterday to see him it’s an awkward situation where he isn’t mine.
But I’m pretty sure he’s in a bad way he’s shell has dropped and he legs are dragging I’m just hoping I can help and nurse him.
I have researched so much and thank you for all your help I think first stop will be vet I’m going to look for a reptile vet in the area.
And make sure no injections as you mentioned.
And then diet,light will be priority once he’s in he’s set up do you think it wouldn’t be wise to bath him daily at first so he doesn’t dehydrate.
And possibly take it slow with sublements maybe Calci dust a couple of times a week.
Thanks
