 I spent 4 days out of the city and...

...when I came back I found the 4th baby Soft Shell dead in the water!!It was the last one with a burned shell.From the 5 softies I rescued a few weeks ago I only have one!!But the last one is perfect and eating a lot!!I dont know how it escaped from the clay vase acid water ...Perhaps it climbed the basking rock and stayed there until I took them all out of the vase. I found out also that my maid didnt give any food to Kenya and Dino and no water to TREX.Dino was yellowish again and Kenya had lots of flacid skin around its belly!When I gave TREX a bath yesterday, I noticed his pee had some solid urates.Perhaps the reason is due to the fact that he didnt drink any water for at last 3 days!! When I asked my maid why she didnt give food to Kenya and Dino and no water to TREX she said : " I was afraid of the igs...".Can you imagine that??My previous maid was not like that!!Last year we spent 2 months in Brazil and when we come back all my pets were perfect!!

That maid should have to go without food or water and see how she feels! What a horrible thing to do. I’m very sorry for your loss and the surviving turtle is in my prayers.
