    Gender for my Cherryhead

    Hi guys! I was wondering if you guys could tell Simba’s gender by these photos? He/she is a Cherryhead redfoot tortoise. It’s probably still too early to tell but the shell length is about 6 inches right now.

    Vomiting Clear Substance?

    He’s not dripping from the nose but when I put my ear close to him I can hear very subtle wheezing/whistling but it only happens for a few seconds. Possibly normal or nose whistling? I won’t take him to the vet yet, I’ll just keep monitoring him and keep everyone updated here.

    Vomiting Clear Substance?

    Thank you for the advice. I have not called the vet yet, just monitoring him and hopefully will get more guidance from this forum. Simba is awake now but hasn’t moved yet (he doesn’t typically move around anyways when he just wakes up).

    Vomiting Clear Substance?

    Hi everyone, I went to go shut off the lights for my tortoise (redfoot, 1 year and 4 months old) since it’s bedtime and saw he didn’t eat his greens. So I hand fed him one and he ate it. But then he started to vomit clear substance, looked like water. He didn’t drink water after and I was too...
