Posted by: drtom at Fri Aug 25 07:13:32 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by drtom ] Again I ask, What is the gut bacteria that is in one tort that kills the other. Certainly in the outdoor area that you provide othe animals have provided poop. Birds, mice, voles, moles, squirrels. Eating the feces of an animal infected with a certain patogenic bacteria such as salmonella can give you salmonella. But thats eating the poop of a infected animal. Even members of the same species will get ill from that source. I just would like to find out what germs or parasites one species of tort has that will kill the other species of tort. As I write this I am looking at my fish tank with 6 species of fish in it. From different continents. Have the sam pH and temp requirements and have done fine for 7 years now without a death. If there is something different about tortoises I would just like to find if someone knows exactly what it is rather than just the golden rule. Most practices are founded in fact so I would imagine someone out there knows some more info. Not trying to provoke any ill feelings just curious about something which I see repeated over and over as to where it comes from. Nature is full of species overlapping. [ Hide Replies ]
