I just got a new russian tortoise and he seems to specifically scratch at his left eye. You guys know more than the pet smart employee that said my russian would grow to 70 lbs. Does all the pics loo
A picture of the left eye and a side and top pic of your enclosure would really help.
Looks like you’re soaking the tortoise- that’s great. The water dishes in stores like pet smart tend to be too small. I’d soak daily for a week then at least 2x per week. When you soak, drizzle some water over the eyes- won’t hurt.
I think the pet smart employee is mixed up about the species. Russian tortoises do not grow nearly this big.
