Help please.. I am a new member to the Forum. I have 2 tortoises and have had them for 10 years. They have always been healthy and I have followed the pet stores advice for years now. The bigger of the two tortoises (Shelby is his name) is having problems with his eyes, they are swollen shut. They will open a little but then go right back to being shut. He will not eat and I am worried. This started on Saturday and has only been a few days but am not sure what to do.
I use walnut shells, and feed them kale and tortoise mix daily. Their water is changed daily with calcium drops added in. They have always hibernated and have been just fine.
Any ideas or anything I am doing wrong as I have always followed what the pet stores have told me so am unsure if I am doing the right things.
View attachment 77289 I believe they are Nevada desert tortoises (I live in Vegas) I can take a pic of him and the tank and upload it...
Please help....
Thank you
