I'm new to this forum, I just want some support. I found a turtle in the road about three weeks ago. She was holding her head tilted and close her shell fully. Also there were black birds pecking at her and her shell wasn't cracked but was kinda peeling in some spots. So I took her to a vet school that helps turtles. Well they said she had an abscess and was thin and dehydrated. Its three weeks later and I just picked her up for rehabilitation. They said I'll keep her four weeks then bring her in for a check up yo see if she can be released. I've never rehabbed a turtle before but I think I'm doing a good job, but its only been four days. When I picked her up they said the last time she ate was three days prior(a raspberry). She's very thin and doesn't move around much. So I made her an outside habitat and she seems to be moving a Lil bit.
