Red-Foot Neck Bleeding

by Katelyn
(West Virginia)

I bought my red footed tortoise a little while ago for my 3rd grade classroom. Just recently she has been developing sores and bleeding around her neck. At first, we thought her shell was cutting her neck so we put a band-aid on it to stop the rubbing. However, the bleeding has not stopped and my students are getting very worried about her! Please help!!
