Bloody tail???

[bsw4062]

Our 5 year old russian has developed some bloods on it's tail slit. We are a bit concerned. Any thoughts?

can you upload pictures? Are the being housed with another Tort?

He might have swallowed a piece of substrate that cut him a little on the way out. I doubt it's anything to worry about, just keep an eye on it.

It probably wouldn't hurt to give your tort a nice warm soak so the area gets cleaned up/off a bit.

Hello and welcome.

Does it live alone? How often do you soak?
