Urgent Care :: TURTLE ACTING WEIRD

[Dandelette.]

Yes i understand, but i dont think i can possibly bring him to the vet...it is quite expensive. Is it possible to do ANYTHING at home for the little dude?
I seperated him from the other turtle, but the other tank doesnt have a fliter nor a heater. It doenst have its proper needs, he ate two shrimps today, but i dont think its enough.

Do you know the reason why it might of twitched in the water? It has stopped, but what might have been the reason so i can prevent it if theres a future.

Perhaps call a few vets and see if they will let you work out some sort of payment plan? If not...then theres nothing you can do, without a vet, just seperate him from the others, and hope that the others didnt get sick, and that your turtle will get better by itself...sorry

[Dandelette.]

I guess thats all i can do....
Thanks for all the help, i really appreciated it

Have you tried calling vets yet?

[Dandelette.]

I have to let it try healing itself. I dont think i can plan out anything with the vets.

However earlier we've bought a apetizer medicine for turtles, and i gave a few drops in his seperated tank, and im hoping he'll eat.

Hes beginning to sleep. I read on another person's forum, it happened exactly. I wake him up, a few minutes later he goes back to sleep.

atleast try to call a vet, dont assume they will give you the 'no'..he sounds sick, these things dont heal themselves you know

[Dandelette.]

We're trying... he seems to have been eating again. Im scared its what SpotsMama said before. It going up and down.

He seems to be acting abit more normal now, but i still dont see him/her bask.
