It sounds like he is improving for you slowly. The crust, is it food or discharge as if he has a cold, etc?
How long did he stay on the medication for?
Has he been basking a good portion of the day I hope? You can post more pictures of him too, if you have them.
My friend that lives a block away from took him in. She has snake bearded turtles and other reptiles. The good new is that he is close I can go and see him anytime I want to. His URI came back or did not get better so she is going to look after him. I would forget to give him meds. I think that is why it came back. Now he is on the road to beeing better. O he might be a daddy next year. With there yellow female.
Oh I didn't know you were giving him away?
That is good he will be so close. Will you take him back in when he recovers?
I hope he is doing much better.
Well I was going to give him a way, but my friend said that she can see if she could clear it up. Her 6 year love him, so I dont think I would have the heart to take him back.
OH I see! Well, at least he is just around the corner. I hope he will make a full recovery, too.
That would be hard to take him back from a 6 year old!
I'm having a lot of issues with Rescue #14. She also had a URI but now is not eating, moving or doing anything. I don't think they were in very good conditions at all.
