He was found with blood like stains coming out of the mouth n nose. Eyes n neck was swollen. <br /><br />Today : Found one out of the remaining 2 had the similar symptoms which is liquid mixed with blood coming out of nose n mouth. Eyes are swollen. Is still able to move around but does not want to eat. Rushed to a few vets but were closed or does not treat tortoises as i found out about it when i was feeding it late in the evening. This is my 1st experience of my tortoises getting sick/ill in the past 8 years so i&#39;m not sure wat to do and no the tortoises were never sent to a vet be4 for the past 8 years.<br /><br />Question : Does anyone knows what kind of illness this is? Can it be treated? Has anyone has the same experience?<br /><br />Am going to Yeoh Vet at Tmn Megah in the morning. Hopefully my tortoise survives the nite. If you have any experience or knowledge which would/could be useful pls share. I would be checking this thread as active as possible. Thx in advance.<br /><br />Btw,does any1 know roughly how much Dr. Yeoh charges for consultation?<br /><br />Checking regularly but no one has replied yet. After asking around at pet shops, it has been confirmed that its flu and the recommended solution is to separate the sick one and put it under the morning sun from about 7 plus to 9. I find this flu a bit dangerous as it has small amount of blood mixed into it. The pet shop owner also says that the tortoise is not eating coz the flu has made it unable to sense the food. blazin_fir3 Pets Wonderland Sat, 01 Mar 2008 21:32:20 +0800
