First I am new here, but a friend on another group just had the same problem with her tort. The vet had to actually go in and remove part of the "rock" with forcepts. They still aren't sure what it was, but they are not done tring to identify it. The tort is successfully pooping out the rest. She showed us pics of the "rocks" and it was white and hard. It looked like rocky urates to me and the others in the group. The tort is now eating better, but is leaking urine so she is not done at the vet.

I hope that you tort is not suffering the same thing. I just thought I would share the info.
