Im not posting on the turtle forum because i dont get along with others over there but I will if I dont get any answers here

About 3 weeks ago I was forced to bring Dan and rosanne my three toed boxies in because of flash flooding we have been going threw here for the last few weeks.Well this forced them into hibernation ..I tryed to keep the temps up but they burrowed down and stopped eating anyway so i went with it and just let them be..Twice a week I would feed and they ate and i would soak them and they would poop.Well last night i went to soak and dan was dead..i have no clue when he died because it had been about 3 days since I soaked.So I got Rosanne un burried and she was burried deep and she was alive but not her self.I but her in her water and she pooped and drank a bit but couldnt get her self out of her water bowl.So today i came hom and she was upside down I got her up thinking she tryed to get back in her water and fell back...She is in her water now but still having propblems with her motor skills.Its like she has a nuralogical problem..Im calling the vet tomorrow but was wondering if you guys know what might be up..is there some kinda turtle virus they can get?

There is a virus that turtles and tortoises and parrots(maybe or maybe it kills parrots?) have that kills iguanas and I think if unchecked will eventually kill them. Unfortunately I forgot what it was called. If i find out i’ll let you know. Up her temps and humidity

I am so sorry for your loss-first flooding and then losing a pet. I don’t have the answer, but I will pray for your girl, Rosanne, that she recovers soon.
