Thanks for the video !!! Tortoises are amazing

Yes they are!

[@roombathetortoise860]

Thanks! This will help me a lot! 🐢

[@TheGreatPetShop]

Glad it helped!

[@danjones6702]

yeah help you kill your tortoise... you should never ever give an injection in the back end of a tortoise, youll damage and destroy their kidneys... it should always be injected in front leg area.

[@SuperBotanica]

my vets on the island have no idea about tortoises

[@xavi4668]

What kind of medication do u use I been looking everywhere and no one say what they use

[@TheGreatPetShop]

You can't give medication to your tortoise without a prescription or vet visit. They can be allergic to the medication, have an overdose or simply not be appropriate to their issues. That's why I don't like to say what I'm treating and with what medication. I hope you understand.

[@ivangutierrez3507]

How is he doing?

[@TheGreatPetShop]

He is much better! Thank you for asking!

[@rektmonk]

My tortoise fell from a 2 storey building, there are no external signs of damage! I'm worried about him now

[@TheGreatPetShop]

Take it to the vet, It may have internal injuries that you can't see.

[@danjones6702]

did it survive.. im surprised there was no outer damage.. but what you dont see from the outside there could be internal damage broken bones or internal bleeding.
