Hey Guys,

I inherited a kreffts turtle who is roughly 45 years old which I know is very old and until today have never had a problem with him for the last how ever many years. when i've gone to check on them all tonight i noticed he wasnt very active so i took him out of the water and noticed he had retained a fluid in his back legs. the fluid looks as if there was a slight bloody tinge to it. now i know he's old but he's been a part of the family a lot longer than me and even some of my uncles. i know i need to take him to a vet but is there any advice as to what would have caused it or how to fix it? also any good herp vets in brisbane you would reccomend?
 
Deb Monks at BBEVS in macgregor is great. Ive heard a lot of really good things about Clayton Knight as well but I havent been to see him
