Please can I have some advice.
My 2x 8 year old males are separated in an open top enclosure as they started fighting a few years ago.
Whilst at work on Thursday, one of the tortoises (larger one) managed to climb over.[/size][/font] The other tortoise has been violently attacked.
Scales are missing from his leg and the whole of his chin is raw and beak chipped.They were both asleep when I arrived home but my injured tort was facing the side with everything tucked in.
My Vet gave me advice over the phone about cleaning his neck but I'm worried that he may have the inside of his mouth damaged. It's as if he can't put his beak together because there's a gap- or cud this be because his beak's chipped?
Can anyone advise?
