    Is Rémy a girl?

    Hi everyone! Rèmy is a bit over a year now and I've been wondering if he is actually a she. What do you guys think? Looking at the cloaca it's definitely asterisk shaped, but also it's a young tortoise still. Please share your thoughts. ??????

    Happy birthday Rèmy!

    About 1 year old ♡ Destroying his tiny cakeumber treat ??? I do need to ask since the papers say otherwise and I don't believe that he could be over 1, weighing around 50 to 53 grams. Any kind of speculation is welcome!

    Bulging eye

    Thank you! I'll make an appointment asap. You also gave me advice when his knees were swollen and that time it was a right call. I hope it's nothing serious.

    Bulging eye

    Rèmy's eye has been like this for almost a week and I'm very worried. No other symtoms and his other eye is perfectly normal and never looks like this. I have had to use a coiled UVB for a while when I'm waiting for new stocks at my local pet store. Could it be an infection or is there anything...

    Hii!!! If you are referring to the white rings/parts around the shell, that is normal, it is a growth ring ♥ The wide part at the lower skutes is normal as well, some HT will get it it's like a "skirt" haha!

    Thank you!!!!!!!! The results are that he has osteoarthritis due wrong habitat and feeding when he was born, but I need to feed him some extra calcium with D3 every day and I have the right husbandry so the condition should not worsen!

    Yeahhh... My HT had swollen back leg joints, around the knees. They looked like ball shaped when a leg should be more even. I showed a picture here and people agreed with me that I should take him to a vet. X-ray showed swollen joints, blood work suggested gout but the fluid sample concluded the...

    Update on Rèmy!! He has osteoarthritis caused by bad diet at the place he was born/taken care of (not my fault) and luckily if I take extra care of his calcium + D3 ratio he'll be okay and the condition shouldn't get worse at least!! The pet store was super responsible and they paid the medical...
