I was supposed to be turtle-sitting my friend's turtles, but have now become their permanent mom. I am keeping them in my guest bath tub b/c she had all five in a 10 gallon tank ...



... Anyway, to keep a long story short, I need to find homes for them, but don't know for sure what two of them are. I have my guesses taken from my field guide, but would appreciate some expert opinions (I don't know much about pond turtles). Also, one of them has what appears to be an abscess on her cheek. It has been there since I got her about two months ago. My friend claimed she was going to take the turtle to the vet, but she never even brought food over for them, so I don't think that was ever going to happen.
