Hi, I have a seven month old hermanns who has been getting these sneezing fits for the last few days. He is doing it right now and the 'episode' has been going on for about 15 minutes. Could go on for longer. He does these tiny squeeky sneezes. I'd be tempted to say they're more like hiccups were it not for the fact that I know that tortoises don't have diaphragms. He doesn't have any discharge from his eyes or nose and he's still gobbling up his food. I have turned his temperatures up in case of RIs and it's about 40 degrees C now. He also has a heat mat for night time. Does this sound like an RI? Or do tortoises get common allergies?
