they are rather poorly kept by the current owner. He wants to give them up and I figured the best I can do is give them a good home (I already hv 3 at home).
I have only seen the pics of the torts and not seen the actual torts yet. According to the current owner, both torts are healthy and eating well and are full grown.
I would appreciate if someone can tell me what's wrong with them and if what I think is correct.
Tort #1
Closed eyes: I sure hope it's healthy and ok and that the shot happened to get the tort with the eyes closed
Shell: Ok the shell got me stumped. It looks like the shell is actually pitted/cracked??? And the shape looks weird too. Anyone know what's wrong with it?? Shell Rot??
Tort#2
Shell: Ok it pyramid shell so I guess lack of calcium and high protein diet
Hind Legs: Does it look smaller to anyone? I suspect it might be suffering from MBD
Anyway I intend to take them to the vet once I collect them. Appreciate what you guys think.
PS. I'm not sure about the diet. The owner just said vegetables you get from the market -_-"
Also, these pics were sent to me by the owner. I hv not seen the actual torts yet
