: Hello some may remember me posting here a hip : We did that. After a while she got no better. She started
: draging her self around the tank. She refuses to move her back
: legs and tail. If I pick her up she will filp her legs and
: tail like crazy but once I put her down she won't move them.
: She also won't poop. We tried everything and the only
: time she does is sometimes when I pick her up and she wiggles
: her legs and tail. She at times will poop then. I hold her and
: let her poop on the floor and I put her down when she is done.
: I have found he on her back several times. She drags her back
: end around and has a problem pooping. I don't know where else
: to turn nor do i Know what to do. I can't stand to see her
: this way and I am considering putting her to sleep. I have grown
: very fond of her because of the care she requires but I can't think
: of anything else to do. She has no life stuck in the tank. She rarely moves and I think she is in pain. I have spent alot of money that I CAN
: NOT afford. Approx $500 in vet bills. What fustrates me is
: when i pick her up she moves her legs, why can't she on her
: own. Also if you touch her back near her tail and legs. She
: will rise up on her legs and move them. but still she will
: refuse to move them.
: Maybe someone can take her. I live in NJ and would travel by car to give her to someone.
