    If you don't eat, maybe it has roundworms in its stomach, you go and buy some insect medicine for it to eat, don't eat a hard plug, and kill it.

    Soft-shelled turtles don't eat. It may have something to do with the season. In winter, soft-shelled turtles go into hibernation.

    Turtles generally like to burrow into the soil when they hibernate. Since you didn't give it the corresponding environment. It also doesn't go into hibernation well.

    Soft-shelled turtles like to burrow into soft sand to hibernate. It is recommended to meet its hibernation conditions. Wait until next spring.

    Its body fat calories are almost consumed. Feed it again. It is believed that at this time, it will have a great appetite.

    If you keep soaking it in water. It's been a long time. It can get sick.

    It also needs sun exposure. A soft-shelled turtle is not the same as a fish. It lives in water.

    That's when it needs to forage in the water. After eating and drinking, I often come to the beach near the water to cool off. Sunbathe.

    This is essential for any flora and fauna. Many people who have just had a pet tend to ignore this. I am also a pet lover.

    Hehe- so ah. The soft-shelled turtle I raised eventually ended up in my stomach. One last thing to say.

    Soft-shelled turtles have certain requirements for water quality. Change the water frequently. Avoid soaking it in water for long periods of time.

    The fish tank should be large. Preferably the kind of fish tank with a small beach and water. It is best to have a certain height in the fish tank.

    Soft-shelled turtles are very good at climbing. I slipped out by accident. Hehe---

    How long can soft-shelled turtles last without eating or drinking. This question is not good. It depends on how you take care of it.

    Well taken care of. Maybe live it for a few months. Otherwise.

    A few weeks. It may even hang for a few days - I recommend that you raise a golden turtle. or the green turtle.

    It has ornamental value. At the same time, it is also easy to raise. If only there were conditions.

    Raising tortoises is fun. You don't have to keep it in the water all day. Keep it directly on the ground.

    Throw some flowers and plants for it to eat. It's also very hygienic. This type of turtle mainly eats plants.

    Spend most of their time on land. You can barely get out of the water. Soft-shelled turtles can't do that.

    Mixed fluffy. It is not suitable to stay on land for long periods of time. Even if I encounter mice, I have to finish playing.

    gnawed alive - so. It's better to raise other turtles-

    Soft-shelled turtles not eating may be water quality problems, environmental problems, and eating problems.

    1. It may be a water quality problem. As a rule of thumb, the average aquatic animal will not eat for a period of time after a sudden change of environment. Friends who have raised ornamental fish should have this experience, this situation is called 'closed mouth', and it takes a lot of effort and effort to make it 'open'.

    Provide water quality that is the same (or close to) their natural living environment as far as possible to help them adapt to the new environment.

    2. The water temperature is about 30 for the most suitable water temperature for the growth of soft-shelled turtles, at this temperature, soft-shelled turtles feed vigorously, grow rapidly, decline in appetite below 20, stop feeding at 15, and enter hibernation at 10-12. If possible, the water temperature should be controlled at about 30 as much as possible.

    3. The soft-shelled turtle has its own growth and living environment. You can buy some soft-shelled turtle feed to feed it, soft-shelled turtle eats pork, ask for fresh pork (don't boil, don't eat it after cooking), cut it into small pieces (determine how big it is according to the size of the soft-shelled turtle), if there is fresh fish and shrimp, soft-shelled turtle also eats. Anyway, it seems that only lean meat is eaten and it is difficult to serve the raw fat that is not eaten at all, and the environment has changed, which will cause the soft-shelled turtle not to eat, so as to choose different foods, such as pork liver, lean pork, shrimp, screws, etc.

    If there is a shell, the shell should be removed and made into small pieces.

    The lack of food may be related to the season, or it may be a problem with water quality. See if the water temperature is low. Generally, soft-shelled turtles will not die if they do not eat for more than three months. Because soft-shelled turtles are hungry tolerant.

    It may be that they have not adapted to the environment, if this is the reason, they need to be given time to adapt to the environment, and then feed, be sure to feed fresh food, which is conducive to the growth of soft-shelled turtles.

    Change the water frequently, preferably once a day in the morning and once in the evening, because the weather is too hot. Usually they will eat food in the water, preferably small live fish.

    If the soft-shelled turtle does not eat temporarily, it may not be able to adapt to the new environment, so it will not eat temporarily. This situation generally takes a few days to eat, some soft-shelled turtles with poor acceptance of the new environment even need to take a week or two to resume eating, for this soft-shelled turtle to try to provide it with a safe and comfortable environment, as little disturbance as possible, so that they have a sense of security, so that they can adapt to the new environment faster.

    If the soft-shelled turtle is sick, it will cause the soft-shelled turtle not to eat, such as white eye, pneumonia, gastroenteritis, etc., for this situation, as long as the soft-shelled turtle is cured, it will slowly start to eat.

    If the food fed to the soft-shelled turtle is not good, the soft-shelled turtle will be picky eaters, and the soft-shelled turtle will not eat for the time being.

    The small soft-shelled turtle does not eat and is divided into water quality problems, environmental problems, and eating problems.

    Water quality issues: Aquatic animals will not eat for a period of time after a sudden change of environment. This situation is called closed-mouthed, and it is necessary to let them open their mouths, and provide the same poor or close water quality as their natural living environment, which will help them adapt to the new environment.

    Environmental problems: The water temperature is about 30 degrees Celsius for the growth of soft-shelled turtles, which feeds vigorously and grows rapidly. Decreased appetite below 20 degrees Celsius.

    Stop feeding at 15 degrees Celsius. Hibernation at 10 to 12 degrees Celsius. The water temperature should be controlled at around 30 degrees Celsius.

    Eating core question: soft-shelled turtle eats fresh pork, cut into small pieces, and determines how big the soft-shelled turtle is according to its size. Soft-shelled turtles also eat fresh fish and shrimp. Environmental changes will cause soft-shelled turtles not to eat, so they can choose different foods, such as pork liver, lean pork, shrimp, screws, etc.
