Hello!
I've taken on a russian tortoise aged 15, after bathing him i tripped and he fell out and hurt his shell and back right leg. I cannot believe it happened! He has been to vets for check over and got pain medication. That was 2 weeks ago and he is still very reluctant to use his back leg, can move it but won't stretch it out or put weight on it. His xray is on Tuesday. Does anyone know what the costs are for such injury? I know the xray may be 100. How does the vet help a broken leg? If it is that.
