Our newest and what a Heart Break this one is. Kept in a cage inside with a 'Heat Bulb' for 8 years. Advice welcome.

Everything happens for a reason my wife and I say. We were contacted on this one and were afraid he was to far to save, ... but after a Vet visit and another request we did agree to take in this poor thing.

OMG, the poor thing.
I have not seen a box turtle look normal any place outside this forum.
A bunch, about 5 or 6 that I played turtle taxi for years ago, bringing them from one rescue lady in Illinois, to another rescue lady up in Michigan we're all deformed too. It's so sad to see them so deformed.
Good luck, sure hope he can live a long happy life with you.
