lower jaw broken

rainbaby67 Dec 01, 2006 12:43 AM

I fed my ornate turtle and his jaw seems to be broken? I have not noticed before today. I have had him for about six years. I am taking him to the vet tomorrow. I just want to know if anyone has had this happen before.

I've never had that happen, but I am sure glad that you are taking your turtle in to the vet. Let us know what they said.

Good luck and hope he's feeling better soon.

Ditto.

I've seen one on TV once that had a broken jaw which was repaired by a human orthodontist & it healed fine eventually.
Please update us when you find out something.
