Turtle was sick with pneumonia gave total of 7 injections one every week. She got better. But still made some whisling noise when she came up for air. It's been 2 months now and noticed pass week her skin by her legs;neck; tail area are very puffy incomparision to the other turtle [same kind, both female]. She is eating but not as active. I am taking her to the reptile vet doc tomorrow I am bring a stool sample too and I hope I don't have to give more shots. Does anyone know why the puffy skin?
