I don't remember exactly what it was called, but when my skink had an RI and stopped eating, my vet gave me the diet for her and it worked wonders. Granted, prying their mouth open with an old credit card to shove the little dropper in there is not fun, but she healed much more quickly with that supplement helping to keep her energy up.
Thank you for your advice. Will the turtle be hurt if I pry her mouth open? (Need to know just in case)
