Panacur might be. I'll check tomorrow.

It's very hard to get a reptile vet here in India.

Thanku for your help :)

One of my female tortoise whom I got five months ago is pooping numerous worms along with normal fecal matter. One month ago I found two or three worms in her poop. I thought it might be because a food and is normal. 15 days ago I change their enclosure into a bigger one, the substrate I am...

Yeah he's lost 20g of weight since last month since he couldn't open his mouth he barely ate. Though I've seen him drink plenty in a day. I have started giving him mashed food now and strained water to drink. Thanks for the help. I was thinking of cleaning the wound with betadine daily once and...

My tortoise wasn't eating well since few days. He couldn't even yawn completely but my stupid *** couldn't notice the wound at his right corner of mouth. I noticed it today. It looks black-red. What would be the treatment for this?

Today I noticed that he pooped mucous, I noticed it because he wasn't in water at that time. It was transparent and had gel like consistency. I might have not seen it before as he might be pooping in water. I fed him cucumber day before. Any idea what could cause this?

Nebula has been uninterested in food since one month. He eats little and then runs off to sleep. He seems less active than before for sure. He had symptoms of RI last year but was recovered well. Recently he has started sneezing again but no bubbles can be seen coming out of nose. I see bubbles...

I thought only native species were banned like Indian stars. Are species like sulcata, cherry head, leopard etc also banned?

Hey! Can we get tortoises other than Indian star here? At pet shops? Or can we get them shipped through any websites from any other country. I love keeping tortoises and want to look for more of them [emoji4] Help will be appreciated.

I got them few months back. It's an indoor enclosure for now. I connected two plastic containers basically. Substrate: coco peat, coco coir Bulbs: two basking UVB bulbs One large heating pad for night One plastic water dish One plastic food dish 2 cuttle bones One hideout Pebbles and shells...

Yes they are. Every morning in warm water for 10 minutes.

Yeah now that I think of it, the deeper layers of the soil were actually moist. Do I need to interfere here and make the top layer moist now?

This happened for the first time and only lasted for 10 minutes. Nebula, started burrowing inside his hideout, not completely inside though. I have kept coco chips as my substrate. I don't think the temperatures are too cold or to hot in the enclosure. He dug for 5 minutes and then stopped and...

Thank you :)

Oh thank you so much!

Could anyone share their Indian star diet chart?[emoji4] Especially the ones residing in India as it'll be easier to know what's available and within reach.

I replaced grass with coco peat and increased the area a bit. It's not a lot but it's what I can provide for now.

Update: though Nebula does not sneeze anymore at any time of the day, he sneezes right after soaking. I am putting him into hot water for 5 minutes every morning. Today he sneezed 5 times with no bubbles from his nostrils but little water from his mouth during the last sneeze. He immerses his...

That was very informative. Thank you so much.
