This is VERY serious. Tape a moist preemie diaper around him after you wash it off. You may have to cut the diaper. Keep it moist and get him to the vet ASAP.
if they don't have nappies will moist kitchen paper and cling film do if not wrapped too tightly?This is VERY serious. Tape a moist preemie diaper around him after you wash it off. You may have to cut the diaper. Keep it moist and get him to the vet ASAP.
What is the red brick plastic thing you have there?
i have him out his enclosure just held him over it to get a picture. it was just something i put in there after he was out(was clearing space on my floor to put him on a pillow). and okay i had no clue about pellets being bad as all information was telling me they were idealWhat is the red brick plastic thing you have there?
Don't put him back on those pellets they are too dry for any torts and go moldy.
It might stick. The nappie material won't stick.if they don't have nappies will moist kitchen paper and cling film do if not wrapped too tightly?
You've been given bad advice - as many of us to start with. Unfortunately there's a lot of old and wrong information still about and pet shops and even some breeders don't always know about correct tortoise care. This website has lots of very experienced keepers with up to date information and advice so look no further!i have him out his enclosure just held him over it to get a picture. it was just something i put in there after he was out(was clearing space on my floor to put him on a pillow). and okay i had no clue about pellets being bad as all information was telling me they were ideal

Many of us have before we found TFO.okay. i feel terrible for listening to bad advice
What about just cling film? I think I've seen that recommended for things like prolapses or penises that won't retract.It might stick. The nappie material won't stick.
Do you have waxed paper there? The tortoise could be put on that for the rest of the night. It won't stick to the tissue coming through the plastron. A piece of a plastic sandwich bag could also be used. Those sometimes stick a bit to the tissue, but if you gently wet the exposed tissue with a cotton swab to loosen it when you want to pick up the tortoise, that should not happen.okay. i feel terrible for listening to bad advice
