My eleven year old water turtle looks like he has a sore on his shell. He has been shedding his shell and for a while it had a gold look to it. Does anyone know what that could be. There are no water turtle vets where I live

MY turtle has a spot on his shell that looks like a sore. He has been shedding his shell also and it had a gold look to it before it started shedding. Does anyone know what that could be? No water turtle vet here where I live

My brother adopted an iguana about a year and a half ago, and he's passed it on to me since he's going to college. I love the little guy, but I can only talk to him, not hold him or pet him. In the year and a half that my brother had him, he was only taken out of his cage about five times except for cleaning the cage out. I can't touch him because every time I do, he windmills his legs and shreds my arms (about 1/2 inch claws).

He's probably about five years old, and is about four feet long from nose to the tip of his tail. He's very placid; the few occasions where I have gotten him out he's never tried to bite or whip his tail, he just windmills his legs. We've tried clipping his claws, but apparently he has a secret weapon in the form of a poop shooter (yuck!).

Should I take him to the vet for a claw trimming or just continue to talk to him through his cage?

As you know from my last question my friend owns a Malysian King Cobra(Which feeds almost exclusivley on snakes) but he is out of feeder snakes. Do you think a king cobra will take Green or Brown Anoles?

I bought him from Petco two days ago. The humidity is fine, the temp is fine, he has a basking lamp, UVA and UVB, warming rock, safe hiding log, fake trees, crickets, and everything he needs. Why is he flopping around and doing this? I live in a small town and there's no way I can get to a vet right now. What can I do???

I notice all kinds of refrences to ball pythons and iguanas and chameleons, some corn snake stuff, but i'm assuming (knowing what happens when one assumes) that most of these corns are color morphs and not true red rat snakes.
Anyone have any collections centered on the reptiles native to their area? Between me and my father our collection has 4 red rats (one okatee, and one lined, the other two are natural variants), an everglades rat, a grey rat, a fat and happy black racer, a florida pine snake, the list goes on. (doing educational reptile programs is grand). Really I'm just curious as to how many others have simpler taste when it comes to their snakes.....

Usually it is brownish. Should I be worried color/size?
See white isnt un-common for it but its size was maybe 2-3x larger than normal.
It doesn't seem my veiled chameleon is eating much and seems to despise crickets. I almost always have to manually feed it mealworms but I havent done so in a while should I go back to mealworms?

high mantinence, with all the cricket powderings and all, so how well would 1 survive if it live on its own, in a place like houston texas (where I live) would she be able to survive the heat(100 degrees) and the cold( 20 degrees) and the heavy storms, and such? - remember this is just out of curiosity, don't worry.
