Wondering if anyone can help me with this. I have an emys that I have now for about 5 months now. It is about 11 inches straight shell. It seems to have a runny nose. I think it may have had it when I got it but it wasn't as noticable as it is now. It's a clear discharge & doesn't appear to be thick & isn't constant. Appetite is still fine. My question is, do I start giving meds, which might make it stop eating or wait a while? Also, this might seem like a dumb question, but, being that this species isn't fond of high temps...do I increase temps to help fight off a possible cold, or leave as it is? Could this be runny nose syndrom? Any help would be appreciated.
Rob
