    Outdoor living question

    Found RE Slider Petaluma, CA

    Red ear sliders are a very invasive species here in CA. They are a dime a dozen at most pet shops. They are cute and small for a few months then unfortunately are often released because they are hard to find permanent homes for. They grow so fast. Yours is more than likely either a wild born...

    What do you do when you go out of town?

    blocked sulcata

    I would try all that Yvonne has said. I would also do some warm water soaks. That will help hydrate. Especially around the mass. Has worked for us in the past on several different animals including our tort when he was younger. It really helps. Good luck! Keep us posted!
