[DeesBalls]

Thanks guys.... so far looking like parasites.

[Snakefood]

at least that will be easy to treat if it comes out positive

[alessia55]

Keep us posted

[DeesBalls]

he has parasites, luckily i took in a stool sample. forget the name of the parasites, but they were all over his fecal matter... he got a shot to treat them...

also got some antibiotic, like a broad spectrum incase there is anything else wrong...

i got a vile of the parasite shot to give him in 2 weeks....

should be getting an appitite today or tomorrow

i also got some more contradicting info about their diet and stuff, but i will prolly make a new thread about that, this will be for his recovery...

[Bradyloach]

I would love to read about the diet info.

[Norm66]

Wishes for a quick and compete recovery.

[Snakefood]

^^^^^ditto^^^^^

[DeesBalls]

I would love to read about the diet info.

[alessia55]

thanks!! just gave him a dandilion and some grass.... didnt show any interest at all :(

[Bradyloach]

He will in a couple of hours just wait it out

[DeesBalls]

i am... just still worried

[alessia55]

You should sit in front of him eating veggies. Maybe it'll inspire him :p

[DeesBalls]

lol it is worth a try.. :)

[DeesBalls]

Did not make it through the night... picked him up this morning and he did not move at all....

It is very sad. I wish I would of cough this sooner and maybe he would of had a chance...

I will be getting.g another one though.

[alessia55]

Oh no... :( I'm so sorry... I wish he could have made it!

[SpOoKy]

Oh my gosh, I am sorry to hear this. :(
Sorry for your loss.

[Bradyloach]

Sorry to hear this. do you know what caused it tho? just parasites?

[Norm66]

Oh, I'm sorry to hear this.

[DeesBalls]

I'm assuming the parasites were the root cause. Also maybe from hunger since he had not eaten for about 6 days... just a piece or a bite here and there. Ans that was again from the parasites....

He will be forever remembered... only has him for 3 or 4 weeks, bit damn guy made an impact on me... he will need burried in the back yard. Wish there was a way to preserve him for ever though.

Thanks for all hopes and sympathies everyone. :) I will be ordering another one today or tomorrow. I can't believe how attached I am to tortoises...

[Bradyloach]

I will get a tortise in a couple years when i have my own place. They are amazing animals and so innocent.

[DeesBalls]

They are. I love mine, even though he is gone.

[USMCgunner11]

3-4 weeks is still more than enough to form a strong attachment. I'm sorry for your loss.

[DeesBalls]

3-4 weeks is still more than enough to form a strong attachment. I'm sorry for your loss.

It sure is... going out to burry him now:((

[marvelfreak]

Sorry to hear he didn't make it.

[CK SandBoas]

I am so sorry your little one didn't make it :(

[DeesBalls]

Thank you everyone... i burried him in a little tupper wear container, with her substrate, and her favorite fake plant to hide in. also threw 4 dandilions on top of the tupper wear before i put the soil back.. :(:( it hurts, but there was nothing i could do. go him to the vet just too late :(

i did order my new one though. i didnt want to waste anytime. i can wait for my new guy to get here!! think i will stick with Blastoise for a name though.. i know it is weird to do, but i really like the name.

[Bradyloach]

sorry bro. :(

[DeesBalls]

all good man.. it is sad, but everything happends for a reason... thats my idea for life, and i stick to it.
