By the way, Photo bucket will only let you upload if your pictures have one of the following extensions:

gif, jpg, jpeg, png, bmp.

It won't take MDI, which is most of what I have since that's what my prefered photo editor creates. Kind of annoying.

Do you guys knwo the name of the medication they give the turtles for a respiratory infecion?

Hi Poliana,

I pm'd you about your turtle.

There are several kinds of medications that can be used to treat RIs (respiratory infections) in turtles. You need to take your turtle to a vet that treats turtles so the one best suited for your turtle, as well as the correct dosage, can be prescribed. Make sure you understand how to administer the medication so you can continue giving it to your turtle when you're home.

In the meantime, keep your turtle warm, like I suggested.
