Hello everyone! Recently took my leopard tortoise into the vet for a general check up. His stool checked out fine, as well as most everything else. The vet did show an large increase in weight from his last visit, but made no other comment regarding it. I was told his blood work showed an elevated iodine calcium level, which the vet voiced it could be from early reproductive activities or early renal hyperparathyroidism. It was recommended I bring him in an about 2-3 months. Also noted that his calcium supplement is with vitamin D3 and he is about 10 years old. The vet told me not to use any calcium supplement with D3, which I thought was good for them. Anyone else have this problem.
