I've heard in the past that turts and torts carry salmonella. How true is this? Where can I find info on this? What is the likelihood of it being passed to us?
I have a sulcata and a RES. I'm not worried about it because we wash up after we play/handle/feed/clean up after them. I want to pass info on to a family member who is TERRIFIED & PETRIFIED that their son will get it because he pet my sully's shell. I tried explaining that it won't happen, but they don't believe me.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
