The Russian that was surrendered yesterday is now walking around and ate all of his dandelion greens. I have a gross story though. I opened his soft food that came with him, it was like a fruit gel with clacium. I opened it to look and OMG..THERE WERE MAGGOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, I discontinued the Baytril injections because .....
I called the vet and explained why the tortoise was not eating. Lighting, no uvb or calcium and he was deficient. The Vet told me to stop all injections..Of course I already did. There was no resp. infection or reason for the baytril, they gave it because of lack of appetite. Nope reason hes not eating.....BAD DIET< CALCIUM DEFICIENT!
So, he is eating, walking around his giant guinea pig enclosure hahahah... (Thanks stacy for bringing those by).
He is moving and eating. Maybe he will make it!
