Hi all! This coming week I will be adopting a desert tortoise from a friend of mine who rescued him several months ago from a bad home. The past several months he has lived on apartment patio cement and she is just not able to provide him a proper home or care so she asked me if I would adopt him. Of course I said yes! He's not healthy. He's got problems with his back feet, his back claws have curled around into the pads of his feet and they look very sore and inflamed. nobody has taken him to a vet to have it fixed so that is the first thing I will be doing. I'm just posting here to confirm that he is in fact a desert tortoise? I want to make sure I give him the proper care. Here are some photos of him that my friend took a few months ago on his given "birthday".
