I recently adopted Cricket, a little Sulcata hatchling (more info here: http://tortoiseforum.org/thread-15274.html ).
He arrived from Florida today (overnight shipping), but has had a bubbly nose for a few days. I was planning to take him to the vet tomorrow if they can fit him in, but was looking up some of the older posts and read that a bubbly/runny nose can be from the environment (dry, dusty, etc.), stress, stress from being handled too much, etc., and not necessarily URI.
Does anybody have any suggestions on what to do? I would hate to wait and it get worse, so am thinking I should just take him tomorrow anyways, but thought I would as for your opinions first.
Thanks!
