oh Kay im so sorry to hear this,have you spoken to the vet again.i hope you are wrong. some times we dont realise just how much damage has been done in what appears a small accident.please keep us informed this could so easily have happened to any one of our tortoises.so i really do feel for you.you have done everything that could have been done to help and since we cant be with them 24/7 there was little you could have done to avoid it happening in the first place.

Hi All just to let you all know poor Eb, didn't make it, I am totally gutted she was only 11, I was hoping she would be a lovely tort to breed from.
Please everyone if you feed cuttlefish bone to you torts, make sure you break off the skirt around it before you feed as it was this that was stuck in the roof of her mouth.

Oh Kay,

Im so sorry. Poor Eb. :( 
As Terry said last night it's one of those things that you just wouldn't consider a danger, I certainly never have. I'll be doing as you say regarding the cuttlefish from now on so thanks for sharing this, I know how difficult it can be.

Hope you're ok.
