Well, we thought he had a respiratory infection and was more or less dying, that was about a week or two ago, but he also had a growth on his jaw and from what we've heard, some of the symptoms we observed may be from that. There arent any rep. vets in my area, so i cant take him. he's too small for treatments too, the anitbotics would knock him out quicker than the infection. He seems to be getting better, but still not eating....

:It can be done (see reply at general turtle forum) but if its been a long time i think perhaps a vet trip is in order. Can you give us some details?
