I recently took in an RES that was found in an abandoned house (the former residents just left one day and left behind everything). The turtle is in good shape, although it hadn't been fed in days, maybe weeks. Anyway, I found a bottle of "Skin & Shell Treatment" in the house, so I studied the turtle and found what looks like shell rot on her plastron (bottom shell). There are two small rusty brown spots with a rough texture. Could this be shell rot? And if it is, how should I treat it?
