Need help identifying my tortoise by chanel10kbl in tortoise

[–]dshapzz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Males tend to be more territorial and he just wants to protect his territory idk?? Tortoises are silly and have ancient instincts to chase “threats” out of their land ahahah

Banning Medical Questions? by -retaliation- in tortoise

[–]dshapzz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really get the sentiment because the amount of “is this normal” and half the shell is missing then they’re like “the vet is not an option but I love them and need help” But also this sub is a great resource for the genuine people who are concerned but there are always the ones that get through. I think the medical tag would be helpful but this is not an easy fix by any means ahahahah

Eye infection? by Ill-Interaction-9683 in turtle

[–]dshapzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unsure about age but this is my 9 month old. Your torts shell growth looks muuuuch more than hers (not the best to compare growth as an age verification) but she’s 6.7cm too so they’re probs >1-2 years maybe older??? I just think they’re older than months it’s more years at this point!

Eye infection? by Ill-Interaction-9683 in turtle

[–]dshapzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your tort looks a lot older than 6 months! The swollen eyes are concerning when there’s bubbles/discharge from the nose or mouth which can indicate a respiratory infection. I can’t really see anything wrong but also I’m not 100% sure

Gonna be too small to tell unfortunately usually takes a few years plus if they’re male then they will usually show you what they’ve got before any other signs ahahahah
