Claw growing inwards

StephenDawn · 24-05-2013, 12:12 PM

We noticed a few weeks ago that izzi's first claw on her right foot has grown towards her leg instead of out, we waited until now to ask anything as we saw the vets at the Cheshire tortoise day. The vet clipped her other claws but left that one and said its very common. Does anyone Know why he didnt clip it? I'm quite worried as it is roughly a millimetre away from her leg. We tried filling it but its really awkward as it moves with the file so looks like we could hurt her by doing it.
Anyone else had a problem like this? If so what's the solution? Will it grow into her leg?
