Hi! Interesting group you have there. As for the help, it will not be very good advice unless you give us more information on how you have them set up, temps, how long you had them, ect.., (Of course by now you may have posted more detailed information and pictures in the turtle area...if so, ignore the before suggested items. ) Hope you get those two up and about soon.

P.S. Glad your here!

You will have to post pictures of the Spotted pond turtles wounds for us to figure out what to do for them.

I think you need some vet help on the shell problem. Without seeing what you're talking about, we can only give you some general information. Usually in cases of water turtles with shell rot (we have no way of knowing if this is your problem or if its injuries) you have to dry-dock the turtles and give the shell time to dry out and heal. There are some solutions that you can use on the shell, like Chlorhexidine and Betadine. Can you take the turtles to a vet? It would be a shame to lose them.
