Hi
Please help me.
I have for 4 spur thighed tortoises. After hibernation I noticed that one of them was making clicking and whistling sounds. I live In a small city in Iran and I have no access to a reptile vet. So I started searching on the internet. After so much googling I found that it probabely is RNS. however he has no symptoms of rns or even pneumonia. his eyes, the color of his mouth all seem natural.
I started with oxytetracycline. the symptoms were gone. I thought that he was going to be okay but Then he started a very strange screaming noise. Then I gave him oral baytril (one-tenth of 1ml of enrofloxacin 10% every 72 hours). But he still screams. Some nights he opens his mouth for seconds and screams. It’s so painful seeing him like this. When he screams I put sodium chloride drop in his nares. I don’t know whether it’s effective or not. But it’s the only thing I can do.
The problem is that I’m so worried and confused. I have a very important university entrance exam in 2 months and I really need to be calm but I can’t. he is like my kid. Please help me. is it pneumonia?
(and forgive me for my English. It’s not perfect I know)
