Ok, I used my Amazon gift card to buy coco his gel off of Amazon!!

I also ordered his temp gun also!

I may not arrive till next month though ??

So in the meantime ima probably soak him in water longer and figure out what to do with the rest of his enclosure!! ???

I should be getting a big glass cage tomorrow!! ??

You should get the eye drops the dentist Zovick told you to get. Seems like your tort has an upper respiratory infection if you saw bubbles coming out of his nose? You put them in his eyes and nose. You’ve gotten a lot of advice and this may have been missed along the lines. You need to increase his heat also and give warm soaks every day for 30 minutes.
I followed this advice and my tort responded without needing a vet. I would also change the bulbs and get rid of the plastic but if you saw nasal discharge than I would say that’s your answer!

Im already fixing the hide thing...I’m working on getting his enclosure fixed up with the Multch, over the coco coir!

I haven’t disclosed what zovick suggested at all! I reached out to a friend vet to see if I can get it without taking him in! Nobody here in Las Vegas carry these drops..they need to be ordered! I currently don’t have funds right now for a vet visit either or want to risk taking him anywhere since not many know of exotic animals!!

What’s the best brand for torts?

Holy cat's, you are given the correct info and you ask again?...read carefully damn it

Vetericyn Animal Opthalmic Gel

Also stop messing with him and changing his stuff for a bit. Pay attention to what Yvonne told you
and let him adjust. You are most probably make him neurotic with all this action around him.
