Our turtle has a respiratory infection but we took her to a vet, got her some antibiotics, and upgraded her heater. She's looking much better today. Going to keep her on antibiotics for the next 2 weeks and then take her in again. The good news is she's otherwise very healthy :) The bad news is we need to get our partner to hold her while we give her a shot :/

I will also note that the vet seemed very happy to see a turtle. I got the impression that she didn't see much other than dogs and cats.

More good news: upgrades to her heater and antibiotics have her feeling MUCH BETTER More bad news: She's fighting twice as hard as she was last time and she is NOT easy to inject
