Here is a good list http://www.ohf.org/docs/Oxalate2008.pdf

It very well could have happened before you got her. That could account for it not being passed with probably better husbandry.

Thanks a bunch Danny that list is very helpful, the only thing on there we feed really as a treat is carrot(which is in the medium group on the list), however we are sure that previously she was fed on red chard, spinach, rocket (as part of a mixed salad bag) and spring greens.

That's what did it then Glad the stones gone and she's getting a better diet.

Thought we would let you know tortuga has been poorly today, the vet phoned twice, going from yesterday he expected us to take her home today, he seems to think she may have an infection as she stopped moving her back legs and tail even though he said she seemed fine and happy yesterday, she is also quite unresponsive he said. They are trying antibiotics and trying to hand feed her but they going to see how she responds overnight.

That's very sad news. Hoping Tortuga pulls through overnight. Thinking of you.
