White tortoise stool
by: Shelly

Here is a good article on turtle or tortoise elimination.

Besides the information in that article, you need to know when to be concerned.

1. If the animal eliminates urates more than a couple of times a week, see a vet.
2. If the urates is hard or gritty, see a vet. (It should be the consistency of bird droppings.)

Keep it slow and steady.
