I have a baby RES who's needs help! I have been away for a few days and he has been in the care of my wife.When I got home I see that he has resperatory problems, underneath his shell is sunken in, hes lathergic, he won't eat, he's not opening his eyes unless I pick him up and when I put him down he closes his eyes and layes his head limp on the ground. I can't get to the vet for another few hours. what should I do!!!

I am not the one to really ask, but from reading the post and stuff you could just keep him warm and since you are going to the vet today in a couple of hours you can do that with a heating pad or warmed towels. Dry docking the little thing for a couple of hours wont hurt it. Good Luck, I hope everything turns out alright. God Bless.
