I have have my horsfield tortoise for just over 2 months now.

Lately ive just had the feeling there is something wrong with him.
He's been like blowing little bubbles out his nose, as if he has a runny nose, and keeps making noises. I rung the reptile room were i got it from and they said its just a cold and it will pass.
But im no sure, its worrying me.
Please help!!!

You should take your tortoise to the vet. This sounds like an upper respitory infection and the vet will put him on antibiotics. Don't wait-take him now before it gets any worse.
