I just received this little fellow a couple hours ago and am wondering what i wrong with his tail. He arrived very hot and the cold pack had completely melted. I soaked him for about a half hour and then put him in his temporary home until I know it will be safe to introduce him to my other tort. I am not sure what he is used to eating as the breeder did not answer my questions. I gave him fresh green, mushrooms, cactus, grasses and some softened Mazuri. He started to eat the bark substrate and the sphagnum moss instead of the food. With a little persistence on my part, he finally ate some cactus. Anyway, I hope you can see how his tail looks very puffy from the underside and curved up from the side photo. I inquired of the breeder but so far have not heard from him. I did make a vet appointment for him for next week. Thanks for any info or advise you can give me.
