Many of you will, unfortunately, at some point have an ill tortoise that requires tube feeding to administer food or drugs.  We have now posted an article on our website on how to tube feed a tortoise.  There are accommpanying photos to make it clear exactly how to do this, and the article has been approved by our veterinary adviser, Kevin Eatwell.

The article has been put in the Vets and Health Issues section of the TPG website )
and here is a direct link to it:
