Good to hear he's doing better. I'd keep the temps up for a while just to make sure the infection is gone. Keep us posted.

well im sorry to inform everyone but tomarrow i am taking my turt to the vet to have him put to sleep. I think that the respritory infection got better but he has been coughing up blood and kinda foaming at the moouth so he will be missed.

i was wondering, dose it cost money to put a pet to sleep? cuse if it did i dont think i would want to pay for someone to kill my pet. just my input.

[marisa]

I'd try to find out what the problem is and save him, especially since you said he had improved. Ask the vet for advice rather than just taking him in to be put away...

poor little guy coughing up blood.

Well sorry it took so long to reply but i just thought i would inform everyone that i didnt want to put them to sleep so i just set them free in a lake by a golf course and the vet said they will probably be alot better off and the stuff in the lake might heal them. O and one of my isters friends cought me a brand new baby turt thats probably not even 3 weeks old and is tight.
