    1. If it is not serious, it can grow well, but the reason must be found from the water quality and nutrition. If it is not improved, the consequences may be serious and the toes may rot until the claws are rotten, we must let the turtle bask in the sun more, eat more fish and shrimp, the turtle food must not be fresh, and a lot of calcium will be lost in the production process.

    2. If the turtle nail flesh turns white, it means that there is a problem with the water quality, it is recommended to change the water immediately, do not use the tap water that has just been connected, it should be sun-dried, or cold boiled water is OK. In addition, reduce the amount of water, it is better to take it out of the water for a while, otherwise it will get worse and worse. Give it more sun, feed more shrimp, calcium is replenished, and nails can grow in a month.

    Turtle nails do not need to be trimmed and are not suitable for trimming because turtles need to use their nails to shred food, and they have a lot of nerves on their nails, so it is not much good to cut the nails of a turtle. When rearing, some stones are placed in the turtle tank, and the turtle is able to sharpen its claws on its own as it crawls.

    Cutting the tortoise's nails doesn't do any good, but it can do a lot of damage. Because the tortoise needs to shred the food with its fingernails, cutting the nails of the tortoise is like a person who has no hands and has no way to eat by himself.

    Moreover, there will be many nerves on the nails of turtles, not only turtles, but also reptiles are basically like this, so cutting the nails of a turtle will cause it pain, just like when a human cuts his nails, Lu Xiao cuts the flesh.

    As long as you master a certain method, the tortoise's nails will not grow too long. For example, put some stones in the turtle tank so that the turtle can effectively sharpen its claws while crawling and prevent the nails from growing too long.

    Yes. Due to the long-term breeding of domestic pet turtles in smooth sorting boxes, glass containers, floors and other environments, the lack of equipment that can grind nails in the breeding environment causes the nails to grow too sharp, too long or deformed, and it is easy to scratch the owner or affect the crawling function. Turtle nails can be properly trimmed to reduce tortoise nail injuries and ensure the normal crawling function of turtles.

    Hold the turtle's nail against the light, see the black blood vessels in the nail and the transparent or translucent part of the front of the nail, and use nail scissors to cut off half of the transparent or translucent part of the front of the nail or trim it proportionally according to the situation, avoiding trimming to the blood vessels.

    Turtles don't need to cut their nails, their nails are worn on their own.

    Wild turtles wear out their nails on their own during hunting and activity, so their nails are not excessively long.

    Turtles bred in captivity generally live in smooth sorting boxes and terrariums, and these environments lack the material to wear nails, so their nails are more likely to grow. Keepers can place the turtle on relatively rough ground, and after a while, the nails will be shortened.

    Turtles generally do not scratch people because their nails are not too sharp after wearing, so even if they are scratched by a turtle, they will not be injured or bleed. However, there are also some older turtles with harder nails, which may be accidentally scratched by Dou Suichang and the finches. Although the turtle does not have the virus, after being scratched, the keeper also needs to disinfect it with iodine or alcohol.

    If you don't have alcohol, you can choose to wash it with soapy water, and if possible, it is best to bandage it.
