The urine may have blood, be straw colored or be clear colored with an ammonia -like smell. If early in condition, dose according to acute schedule. Otherwise 3-6 times daily as needed should be sufficient. I prefer not to give antibiotics, due to susceptibility of these pets to fungal infections. They really come in handy.
Some marine reptiles can develop chronic chemical toxicities if kept in tap water.
Tap water is chlorinated, may have heavy metals, bcp s and other contaminants. This will shorten your pet s life and make him susceptible to disease. Use only filtered bottled spring water that has been analyzed to be free of chemicals. This helps to keep them healthy and strong. Good organic, unpolluted nutrition, carefully monitored temperature control and protection from accidental predation by dogs and cats can prevent a lot of sad ends to these beautiful gentle creatures.
