Just around 4 hours ago my friend gives me a red eared slider full of moss growing on it's shell!!! He didn't tell us how he got it, he just dropped it off. Me and one of my buddies take around 1 hour and a half cleaning the poor dirty turtle ( we were wearing gloves and washed our hands after in case of salmonella ) and when we were finished cleaning it we saw alot of shell rot. On the bottom of the shell and mostly on top. In the middle of it's shell it had somewhat an opening like a crack. Please tell me what I can do to the poor little turtle that wants to live ( I wanna keep it ). Please give me options on what to do and if I have to take it to a vet how much will it cost because I don't know if I can afford it. Heellpp!!!!!
