It is 2 degrees out and the wind chill is way below 0 so it is not ideal but I have boot warmers under a blanket and a container all ready to go its interesting I have been paying very close attention to the torts because of all the sick tort's I keep hearing about otherwise I might not have noticed.
I hope it's something simple. Glad that all thos sick tortoise threads have had another advantage in that it made you watch yours more carefully.

I had almost said in my post, "I hope it's something simple like worms." Then I came to this post of yours, so am glad I didn't wish that on you.
Haha! I guess worms are ok I just hate treating them. I am not taking her in. I am just bringing a fecal sample in. It is so bitter cold here and I don't want to stress her out by taking her out of her enclosure. My vet was a little disappointed but I said lets start with. Fecal and go from there.
I thought opuntia too but I stopped giving it to her as soon as I saw the first runny poop.
