Gigi the Aldabra tortoise has been dealing with some stiffness in her front limbs. Her movement has improved with medication, but we wanted to know the extent of her arthritis, so we can make the best medical decisions going forward. We also wanted to know if she’s still follicularly active (making eggs).
So, Gigi got a CT scan at our vet hospital. Our team got some amazing images that showed she does have some arthritis in her shoulders and elbows, but doesn’t appear to be severe at this time. She also has evidence of follicle development, so she still is actively making eggs - pretty remarkable for being nearly 100 years old!
