I have been soaking gary in 90 degree water with gerber baby food daily and his tank has been kept at an 85 degrees. He is improving greatly but I still want him to have the best medicine and care possible. so I spoke with a reptile rehabilitation organization today and I will be dropping him off tmrw afternoon. The women I spoke with ensured me that he would be well taken care of and that we could return him to the wild together once he was healthy. So Thank you everyone for all your advice and helping me find an organization!

it is legal to repatriate (release) boxers in S.C.? how long has he been i captivity? and was he exposed to any other turtles? also is he/she being put back where found? because they try to go back to where they come from and a lot die on the journey.
