Hello everyone it's Me again,

Well I seem to have nothing but bad news...

My one RES STILL has not eaten anything, and I have tried EVERYTHING, I was going to bring him to a HERP Vet, but we got hit with a huge snow storm... Now not only is the one not eating... I noticed the one who is eating has a very large bump on the lower back part of his head/neck. I also noticed little smaller bumps all over them... only skin, mostly on their arms and legs. They Also seem to have little bumps where their ears would be. One of them, the little bump in the ear area is turning brown.... I know that I need to get them to a VET ASAP, in order to save them... but if anyone could just help me and possibly tell me what these bumps are I would greatly appreciate it. I love these two babies with ALL OF MY HEART! And I just want to cry with just the thought of them being in the littlest bit of pain... Please help :cry:

When I hear of a bump in that area, I think of an abscess. I can't say for sure, but it's my first guess. If it is, it's very painful for your turtle, and the sooner you can get out, the better. I understand about the snow. In the last two weeks of school, we have missed 5 1/2 days...and it's still coming down. I'm getting really tired of sitting at home.

Do you have any pics of them? I'm not sure what it is but someone could probably make a good guess if we got a look at it.

I'm going to try and get some pics for you

Many bumps all over the skin areas? Is there a head to them like a pimple would have? A picture is really necessary to try to figure out what it is, but it sounds like it could be some sort of infection. Try to post a pic...
