Okay well I have a Female RES named Hammie. I recently found out that her feces contains these white string like things. Are they worms or what..? Is this fatal? Could it be cured? Thanks.

Could be. The vet could probably give you something to cure the worms.

Take your turtle along with a stool sample to be analyzed to a herp vet. The vet can determine the type of parasite your turtle has and prescribe the appropriate medication to cure your turtle of them.
