Rns...

tortoiseboy · 13-04-2008, 01:11 AM

I was wondering how do torts catch rns, and what are the main symptoms?

A better question might be, how would a vet go about identifiying if they've got it?

Bubbles from the nose is the most common sign or making harsh noises when breathing.

A gaping mouth is also a sign of RNS or upper respritory infection.
