I've taken care of the old tortoise and got a new one!

Posted by ViennaPhilharmonics on March 29, 2002 at 13:45:35:

Nah, the vet was just too much, 3 times the cost of the tortoise itself. So i decided to take it back to teh seafood store. They wouldnt let me refund, but let me "trade", they gave me another tortoise similiar to the sick one, except its healthy--its moving around and stuff. My new tortoise looked like the old one so i think its a spurred-thigh tortoise, when i put it in my dry backyard...it actually moves around! Sorry didnt take the old one to the vet, vet is too expensive and the i will trust that the store owner will take care of it!
