Sorry I'm late to the thread, @Toddrickfl1. How are they doing, and what did you decide to do (if anything) about making any changes husbandry-wise?
Turtle #2 "Moe is back to normal and back with all the other turtles. None of the other turtles have become sick. Turtle #3 "Spud" unfortunately is still not eating and not using her back legs much. I've seen her eat a few bites but mostly is not interested in food. She's not sleeping constantly like at first. Her eyes aren't puffy anymore also and she is active, just not eating. I've kind of just been waiting things out. I'm not sure about vet visit would help much at this point.

Skurt has been congested sounding but only when really moving for two days but eating like a pig. Keeping an eye on her for now.

Well it's been weeks now and honestly at some points I thought turtle number 3 "Spud" was going to die. She had gone back to being lethargic and basking non stop. Today though out of nowhere she is active swimming around and starting eating again like her normal self!
