I have recently bought a hermanns tortoise from someone on Pets 4 homes that was living in a cage with a Quaile in hay and was feeding on mainly red foods, She told me it was a 3 year old and was healthy, She also said she had cleft lip and that it was common,
I was new to owning a tortoise and thought everything was fine until I did a lot of research,
It was in fact a male and much preferred kale and green lettuce which is obviously much more healthy, I then found out it did not have cleft lip and in fact had an over grown beak which I have gently filed down, Aswell as this he has a nasal infection which I was advised by a vet to treat with Baytril orally
I'm on day 4 out of 6 of o. 2mg and he is still creating snot bubbles
Any recommendations??
