Hello, I was told by a friend that his roommate had bought two turtles, red eared sliders. I don't know where this roommate had bought them or anything, but my friend has sent me pictures of the turtles and he described the afflictions. It seemed to be a sore on the neck and a slight discharge around the eye. The eye also has trouble opening. I will post pictures here tomorrow or as soon as possible, but if anyone has any idea of the problem, feel free to guide me. I won't be having them do anything until I have diagnosed it. The other turtle is fine and they are seperated.

A sore & discharge indicate infection.
The turtle owner should take them to a good herp vet.
