I recently purchased a hatchling razorback musk turtle. I have had him for about a week had been doing fine. Yesterday I noticed he was bloated and floating. I presumed he was dead but much to my surprise he was not. He is still haning on but i dont know what is wrong with him. His limbs are bloated and his eyes are closed. He is very lethargic and the only movements he will make is snapping at whatever is close to him. He also hasen't eaten in a couple of days. Does anyone have a clue as to what has happened to him?
