    Hello friends, it is a coincidence that I also raised two coin-sized Brazilian turtles, which are the same as your turtles, and also belong to water turtles, and I have also learned and practiced a lot of its living habits and habits, and solved the confusion of some turtle friends, because I like turtles. I think it's lively and cute.

    Okay, now about your question, do you know about turtles? The eyes of turtles look a little protruding, but if they are very protruding, it means that your turtle is a precursor to white eye disease. infected.

    In general, white eye disease is that the eyes are swollen in the early stage, then red and bloodshot, and gradually open the eyes with a layer of white membrane. Instead of eyelids, the turtle closes its eyes, and the eyelids are also white, and many people mistakenly block white eye disease.

    In time, use chlortetracycline eye ointment, which is generally available in the family, remember that it is chlortetracycline, not erythromycin or others, if there is no pharmacy at home to sell it, a few dollars, and then apply it to the turtle's eyes, gently clamp the turtle's back carapace with the inner thighs, and use your fingers to open its eyelids, if he does not cooperate, it is also effective to apply it to its eyelids.

    Then be sure to dry it so that the bacteria don't re-infect its eyes in the water. Twice in the morning and evening, soak it in warm water for about 10 minutes in the evening before applying the medicine. It will be fine in a week or so.

    In addition, a few suggestions for you, the turtle has a lot of excrement, it is easy to get dirty water, and it likes to stay in clear water, so it should change the water frequently. It must be tap water that has been dried for two days to remove harmful substances in the long water. If you are lazy, you can use cold boiled water.

    Your turtle's eye is infected, and I think it's caused by the water quality.

    There are also turtles that like to sun their backs, which is very helpful for its healthy growth and non-rot nail disease. Do not place in a dark, damp place, but in a place where the sun can reach during the day.

    Okay, I'm typing word by word, if you still have questions, you can continue to ask. Definitely in time. Hope your turtle will be able to ** soon**. Hope, thank you.
