What is wrong with her. What do I do!!!!!!!!!
Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 12:03 amShe looks like an overweight turtle. How long has she looked like this? Can you show up a photo of her when she's not all tucked into her shell?
Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 12:17 amhow big is she? is she being fed most of the day?
Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 12:29 amYes, she looks kind of fat. What's her diet like? If you could tell us the pellet brand, number of pellets, frequency, any veggies, any fish or meat and we can see if it's a diet problem.
Posted: Mon Apr 28, 2008 12:34 amI adopted her about a month ago. She was really sick a pretty beat up. I nursed her back to health but now she is swollen. i feed her pellets retomin baby, she like gold fish to.

@Clatise2124: How many pellets are you feeding? Is it everyday or every other day? And goldfish are actually very fattening, how often do you feed her those?
