Hihihi!
Been a member for a long time, was more active, have a bunch of tortoises, busy college student in dual major of mechanical engineering and a mathematics degree. Most of my time is spent on school, building crap, and with my wonderful boyfriend.
Had some very stressful/awful events...
I would take to the vet to get him on some sort of antibiotic, probably injections, right away. If this gets septic, that will be very deadly. Another thing, make sure his basking platform, he's able to completely dry out while using it, I have heard when turtles are unable to dry out fully...
Always a pleasure seeing what treats for the eyes your tortoises produce! I love my babies I got from you (thought I do love all my animals babies) That squishy one has such a personality. :)
Well, when I say "squishy" I'm of course talking about his weird shaped shell, lol.
Sometimes people find them in the wild with this symptom. I even watched a youtube video of a boxie someone caught and then lanced, treated the area, I believe they set it free the next day.
Both my mother and father are mathematicians, so math came to me pretty easily, but my mother and father are unable to teach math. When my mother would help me in math, I was actually able to always understand her, but whenever she tried to teach someone else their reaction was basically, "Huh?"
Wow, thank you all. Wasn't expecting this, really, thank you all. Hope you all have a great day as well. Also, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! :)
I purchased a hypo red from Jeff, he put up with my 'doltness' through the entire transaction, was a pleasure dealing with him, and the tortoise I got is even more beautiful in person. :D
I have this plant that grows in a spot in the yard, I threw old decorative halloween pumpkins over there a few years ago and this smelly melon plant comes up every year.... Did I mention the oh so pleasant aroma that this entire bitter melon plants emits? It's like the smell of... really really...
People mourn differently, some it hits them instantly, others it hits them at a later time. I have had both experiences in mourning, sometimes the mourning would last only a few hours and I would be fine, then a week later I mourned again.
