Squirt The Leopard Tortoise having a bath

Herpard · 13-02-2010, 12:57 PM

Hello,

Here's some picture of my Leopard Tortoise,Squirt

I spotted him in a pet shop when i was buying a new UV light for my Hermanns,

He didn't look well and was in a Vivarium with about 10 baby Hermann's tortoises,i asked what breed he was and they said Horsfield but i knew he wasn't so i bought him even though i didn't really want to

When i got home with him i noticed he had bubbles coming out of his nose so i took him to the vets where they diagnosed him with something called Runny Nose Syndrome? and gave me some antibiotic powder to give him.I then searched tortoise breeds and saw some leopard picture that looked like him so i guessed he was a Leopard.

He is now living in a old indoor plastic rabbit cage,Once we have settled into our new house and decorated it i will be moving him to a 6ft 6 by 4ft old bookcase (That takes up half my bedroom lol) as he's grown quite a bit since i've had him
