a small male desert tort has bubbles on his nose.
it happened after I soaked him for an hour or may be more.
I was afraid of bladder stones. because males are more affected than females and are easily die ... as their urinary system is longer and narrower . so I soak them daily.
any advice will...
I gave my 200g Egyptian tortoise amoxicillin 1000mg as an antibiotic
But it was overdose
He has severe viscous diahrria smells like the drug.
Any help to do ?
What is the difference between fleas, ticks, mites, lice .
I found small running white and Brown insects on their shells .
I know tortoises are cold blooded.
They won't harm them.
I think she is impacted
Or her intestine rolled over
Yet she laid 4 eggs
Each One at a time
I force feed her fibers like lettuce
She only urinate one time
Her urine is full of small and medim and large stones.
Her back limbs don't move well . I think it is a sign of hard constipation.
So...
I figured out why she is heavy and has constipation.
She wasn't eat at all.
With The previous owner . The tortoise eat sand and that make sand to impact inside her vesera..
Coarse sand not fine particles.
They don't eat
I put them in a water plate and added flagyl. (For anaerobic bacteria)
And I gave them vitamins.
Finaly I gave them oral antibiotics dissolved in water and I soaked them in it
But they don't eat..
I put them in sunlight every days
I use lead bulb to make them warm.
