So glad he was seen. What cream are you putting on him?

You definitely should talk to the owner/s of that pet shop and find out what doctor they take their turtles/pets to see (most good pet shops have one). If they don't and they sell turtles/pets in that condition, they shouldn't be in business.

While he is in dry dock, I suggest that you start looking for a larger habitat for him. His tank now is far too small. The care guidelines on this site can tell you what size and type of tank would be good. Good luck, and pelase keep us posted.

I'm so sorry to hear about this! Good luck with your turtle, looks like a big fella and I love the basking rock you have for him/her. I hope your turtle gets well soon, please keep us updated!
