Anyone who has seen any of my recent posts will know my Russian tortoise has stopped eating been trying all I can to get him, but so far all methods are failing.
Anyway if he isn't eating I'm obviously not expecting him to poop. However I am regularly soaking him in the hope to at least keep him hydrated and most times he soaks he takes a few gulps of water too. So he should be weeing, right? Because he isn't ;( which leads me to believe my worst fears.. That he has a blockage aas nothing is entering or leaving his system, what do you guys think?
Ps if you do think he sounds blocked anything I cando besides what I'm doing (regular warm soaks and wiggling his back legs back and forth whilst he is soaking)
