Sorry for the late response. A little after 24 hours later he was back to 100%. I'm sorry for responding late, started a new job at UPS. Im so glad because I haven't worked since April. It sucked so bad when my tort got sick and I only had 60$. And getting declined for those pet credit cards...
No its Tank that's sick, the little one. The big one is Rocky, Rocky is happier than ever. He has really came out of his shell lol. I adopted him few months and I dont know if the family had kids or dogs but he came all traumatized. Sometimes he would pee just by me walking up on him too fast...
Great news, I was about to give him a second soak today, and when I went I caught him eating. It's the first time he's moved around since yesterday morning. He slept all day yesterday and this morning, but after the pydilite bath today, it woke him up.
Gonna let him eat then give him...
Thanks you, these little guys mean a lot to me. I got tank and scooter in February, a couple months later my dad passed. I have a bunch of pictures with my dad with tank and scooter. That's why I didn't wanna lose the little guy.
I'm currently soaking him in pydilite mixed with carrots gerbert. He looks way more alert then yesterday. I hope he pulls through. I'm glad he pooped. I was worried he couldn't go.
Please tell me I didn't mess up. I just noticed you said to put the pydilite in his soak water. I'm actually...
Im crossing my fingers, right now I gave him a break from his soak, he was in there over an hour and when u took him out he was kicking and almost seemed active again. I gave him a break to eat his boiled carrots
I try to hard to give them the best food. I keep the store food to a min. Look how bald my hibiscus trees are, I planted it for them and tear leaves and flowers daily . He's waking up and looking more alert. Still boiling his carrots
I just put fresh warm water and he looked more alert. I tilted him face down a couple seconds to see if any mucus came out, but it was clear, both nostrils were clean. I seen people on youtube clear their lungs or airway like that when they have a cold. Store across street didn't have gerbert...
I just got off the phone with Exotic pets in Pasadena. She's gonna have me apply for these 2 pre paid cards and I can pay vet bill over 6 months interest free. Gonna apply now.
When I put her in water she woke up and looked alert but fell back sleep. I raised temp from 80 to 85. I noticed she opened 1 eye first then the other.
Is that Sand, the face looks bitten, bulling, soil looks to dry. Can we stick the question of what to do with a lethargic tortoise? Sorry if I'm coming off as mean, just irritated. I've built several closed chamber and kept 3 healthy sulcatas for almost a year. I'm asking a question about a...
How long warm soak? I think he might of got sick yesterday, you think he can get sick in 77 degree ? I live in LA and we had a so called storm yesterday, it sprinkled for 2 min and stopped. I took them out after becuae it was sunny and almost 80 degrees. But they like the concrete area, I was...
Naw it's not that, the big one came with bumps, the 2 little guys I've had them since hatchlings. I also wonder why they look pyrimided in pictures. In person the look perfectly round. I see what you're saying but no, I have closed chamber with 80%to100% humidity. If you scrape the top soil...
Does anybody know if vets finance ? I don't have bad credit, I just don't have credit. I've never applied to credit cards. I only have like 50$. If he still lethargic tomorrow i will try and borrow money to take him to vet. I don't wanna lose the three little guy
I have three sulcatas, I know everybody is gonna get mad at me but I had 3 enclosures and I'm struggling right now. I couldn't really afford buying soil for 3 enclosures and all the light bulbs were wasting electricity. So I slowly let them get to know each other over several weeks and started...
