Please help , for the second year running my 8 yr old girl has produced a massive egg that has needed injections from the vet to help her lay because they've been so big.
The vet has advised that i try to re-home my male to save my female having to keep going through the same painful process - last year the egg was dropped by the vet nurse and they then tried to charge me £ 80 for the xray and injections , this year they charged me £130 !!!! Ouch .
My pair of torts get on so very well and it's breaking my heart that i have to re home one of them- im just wanting a second opinion that spliting them up is the correct thing to do. Is it more than likely that Tilly wont ever be able to carry clutches of small eggs and lay them without intervention- i hope im posting this right because i'm a new user.
