Question
I have 2 slider turtles, both males, 1 of them has cheeks real puffy, looks horrible,other is regular, he's not eating i don't think or sunning anymore?? any suggestions?

Answer
Hi Kevin
I am sorry to read about the problem with you RES's

The only advice at this point that i
I can give you is to contact a vet

The symptoms of the one sound like an antibiotic might be called for and the other one needs to be looked at if it is lethargic and not eating

I'm very sorry that I could not be of more help

Good Luck with them
