My Russian tortoise Tank has two small sores on the back of his neck. The skin is red and it seems like one has opened up and scabbed over. The area on his neck that is hurt is where it presses against his shell.
He has an odd habit of looking so far up he's looking upside down. I'll say hi to him and he'll look up at me. If I happen to be behind him, instead of turning around like a normal tort should, he just looks so far back that his head is upside down. The hurt area on his neck is the part that touches his shell.
What should I do?
Also, he refuses to eat anything else but romaine lettuce! I've tried to get him to eat other things, but her refuses! Grr.
Sorry the pics not to good, he doesn't like to stick his neck out for anybody. (Get it? )
