Hi,

One of my Sulcata (suspected female) who is a little more than 3 years old and 7.5 inches in size has been vomiting for 3 consecutive days but she only does this in the morning around 8-9:00 am.

I can't think of any reason why she would do this because all my tortoises are living alone in their proper and respective enclosures equipped with hay bedding and UVB/heat lamp.

The only out of ordinary that I did to her is that last week, I fed her a mixture of Mazuri, Lettuce, Celery and Carrots with Herptivite and Calcium with D3 supplements.

Please don't give me a half-A answer, "Have a Vet check it" because there's is no compitent Reptile vet around my area despite the reviews and recommendations from friends and online community. I find reptile hobbyist more knowledgeable than vets.

Any feed back would be appreciated.
