Welcome ,Can't help with the tortoise problem but stay tuned in one of our in house experts will know and probably be glad to help you and especially the tortoise.They will have to have more information like what type of tortoise ? What you are feeding it? What are the day time and night time temps ? What type of enclosure? Humidity? These all play an important part in diagnosing the problem.

Welcome to the club!

Tom & Mark should look at that and let you know...................


WHY did you take him to the Vet to get Xray'ed?

What caused your concern? Looks to me like a fatty mass, but the Vet said that is her stomach expanded?

& don't worry about your English....we know it's a second language for you! LOL

What kind of turtle is it?

Most problems seem to be directly related to temps and over the long term, diet.

Hang in there, more will see this!
