QUOTE(budblely @ Dec 28 2009, 12:32 AM) Welcome to the TTT forum. Nice to meet u too. Bro, i think u can find the CareSheet at the 1st Page of this forum.. But most important is which tortoise u plan to pet? Juz wondering coz u didnt survey the tortoise prices first before u say want to pet them?... Wow...it came to my surprise that people in this forum are so friendly and fast responsive too. Regarding the prices, here mayb i can help abit (just a roughly measure) : #3. Star = rm150+ #4. Sulcata = rm500+ #1. Leopard = Rm500+ #2. Radiated = Rm1000+ Hope it might help. Do more survey, information & caresheet 1st, Bro   I personally rare Leopard before but give away 3years ago. N i just got back to M'sia n thinking to start to have these pets again. Wonder where i can get them in KL? Any suggestion. |

Can anyone give me a hint where to purchase Batyril.
I am not sure PetSafari sell this at Ikano. Please help. Besides, can give any guidelines how to apply it on tortoise infected with RNS. |

You need to determine what causes and or more information about how the tortoise is being kept ?? before recommendation can be advised !! As some can be deadly if left un-treated while others not !! I have seen/heard of IS having RNS all his life with his owner !! Good luck Bro...thx for your advice. My tort kept internally, at room temperature. Has basking lamp and UVB light. Basking lamp only switch on 6hrs/day, UVB 24hrs. Its only 3.5inch in size. I have no idea out of a sudden there is air bubble from its nose. The bedding is wood chip. Eat well thou. I was told to try use bronchipur W, its a syrum type, SERA brand. Anyone agree? |
