Hello
I am going to take my tortoise for his yearly check up. The vet is suggestion a mouth Smear and a blood count. Are these needed or is this something i can hold off on. My tortoise has been healthy over the past year. One problem is I moved 30 plus miles away and i cant really do multiple visits with the vet. I might try to find a different one closer but i do like the vet i am using. so any info on how important those are to do would be much appreciated.
