  • Central American wood turtle with respiratory infection, antibiotics for a week and two days still not eating what to do?
    My son talked me into buying a Central America wood turtle at which time we set up an elaborate out door enclosure next to our pond with fencing & lights. It was in the darn thing for one day & escaped. looked everywhere but three days later we went on vacation. When we returned there was still no sign of it.

    But incredibly a week and a half after the origin escape our dog found her right next the fence. We. brought it inside and the first day it seemed ok but now I am pretty sure it has a respiratory infection. What should I do? We have already been through quite the ordeal here and I not sure I am up for an extensive vet bill Should I treat with some of the products online?

    honestly your best bet is to take them to a vet because they are going to need antibiotics. respiratory infections in tortoises can be fatal if left untreated or treated incorrectly
