The shell under the turtle has cracks and turns yellow, and it hurts to press it in

There is a high probability of soft onychomycosis.

Check this out, hope it works for you.

First of all, don't think that if you keep a turtle in a well-lit enclosed space such as a balcony, the turtle will not be deficient in calcium. Don't assume that you won't get such a disease if you are fed calcium-supplemented foods under such conditions. UVA UVC in ultraviolet rays can be penetrated into your turtle house.

The UVB, which is the most important for reptiles, disappears under the barrier of glass, and the most common disease is the fast-growing baby turtle. Map of the Americas Turtles and other colored turtles are more likely to cause this disease, and if they are kept in such an environment for a long time, the symptoms of soft carapace of small turtles will generally appear in 1-2 months, and the appetite of sick baby turtles will decrease. In the early days, baby turtles will show signs of floating and snoozing.

It is not easy to detect and judge that it is soft armor. At this time, the appetite of the baby turtle decreases, and the appetite of the baby turtle is still not good 2-3 days after getting sick. It will not seem as good as before.

The carapace softens markedly after 3 to 4 days, usually on the posterior edge of the dorsal carapace, as at the onset of the disease. The limbs of baby turtles can also be weak. It feels like it will continue to deteriorate after 4 days.

The entire tortoise shell will gradually soften, and eventually the whole baby turtle will gradually shrink. Refusal to eat. All signs of weakness manifest themselves, and in general, leuchonychomycism appears in the case of winter warming.

Because of the cold outside, many people keep turtles warm in places like living rooms and balconies. The living room was poorly lit. The glass of the enclosed balcony blocks the UVB

As a result, leptonychoenism often flares up. If you want the baby turtle to be healthy, it is important to prevent this disease1It is best to use UVB lamps for irradiation for heating friends.

The water turtle chooses to irradiate at a distance of about 30 cm. 4-6 hours of irradiation per day is appropriate2Be mindful of the variety of food you eat.

You can feed live fish and live shrimp, as well as dried shrimp. In this way, a good body color can be raised, and the bones in the bait can also provide a considerable amount of calcium to the baby turtle3Turtles found to be soft-carapace need to be raised at a lower water level.

You can feed shrimp meat, etc. 4The drug can choose vitamin AD (cod liver oil) to help with calcium conversion. Calcium lactate can be used to supplement calcium.

How do you know it's going to hurt, it's estimated that I'm too fat, and I want to exercise and feed less.

Resulting in turtle shells. There are many causes of cracking, and there are different ways to deal with it. If it is a turtle's normal molt, it will usually change color from the edges and then fall off from the layer, so don't worry about it at this time, and don't help to avoid injury to the shell.

If you have nail rot, you need to remove the nail rot and then use hydrogen peroxide.

Apply to the wound and apply potassium permanganate.

Crystallized. If the breakage is man-made, hydrogen peroxide and antibiotic drugs are also used**.

What to do if the turtle shell cracks, why does the turtle shell crack?

1. Molting. Turtle in the process of growth, tortoise shell.

There will be aging and falling off, and at the same time, new nails will also grow, which is very normal, so don't worry too much. Usually at this time, the edges of the tortoise shell will begin to change color, and then the layers will fall off, and the whole molt will take about 10 days. It should be noted that no human help should be carried out during the molting process, otherwise it will lead to injuries to the turtle shell, and the wound will take 1-2 years to recover.

2. Nail rot.

Rotten nail disease is one of the common diseases of turtles, which is characterized by ulceration on the surface of the carapace, and in severe cases, there will even be holes where the muscles inside can be seen. In this case, the diseased part, that is, its rotten nails, needs to be removed, and then the wound is smeared with hydrogen peroxide, and a layer of potassium permanganate crystals is applied. Alternatively, chlortetracycline or Yunnan Baiyao can also be used.

Spray**. 3. Man-made injury.

If the turtle shell is broken due to human causes, it is also necessary to clean its wound with hydrogen peroxide, and apply some antibiotic drugs to prevent embalming. If the infection has already occurred, the pus and necrotic material from the wound need to be removed to create a fresh wound before medication is administered. If the situation is not serious, there is a chance to save it, but if it is too serious, there is no way.

There may be cracks in the turtle shell that are too dry, it is best to nourish him with some water, otherwise his nutrition will not keep up, and the turtle shell will crack, or it may be that the turtle is still young and has some collisions, which make the turtle shell crack. Although turtles are drought tolerant, they should also pay attention to water and nutrients so that they do not lack water and do not become malnourished.

The cracking of the edge of the turtle shell may be caused by trauma, such as a turtle falling from a height, or it may be that the tortoise shell is cracked due to the turtle's dry rearing time for too long, or it may be a growth mark, when the turtle grows rapidly, the shell cannot grow for a short time, and cracks appear.

Summary. Hello, the bottom shell of the turtle is cracked, if it is a small turtle, then there is no need to worry, because the baby turtle needs to be shelled in the process of growth, as long as the shell is taken off, it will return to normal. The adult turtle found that its shell was cracked, and the red flesh inside was exposed, and applied some anti-inflammatory medicine to it.

The crack of the tortoise shell is likely to be due to nail rot, the surface of the carapace is ulcerated and cracked, and in severe cases, holes are formed and even muscles can be seen. The wound should be cleaned immediately with hydrogen peroxide, at this time the rotten nails of the sick turtle should be removed, the affected area should be smeared with hydrogen peroxide, and potassium permanganate crystal powder should be applied to the wound. If the turtle shell is cracked in a large area, it may be a problem with rotten shells, and it is best not to deal with it indiscriminately, but to take it to a pet store**.

Hope it can help you, dear! <>

Hello, I've seen your question Ha Now I'm manually replying to the content for you, but it takes a little time, please be patient for a while, thank you, thank you.

Oh dear! Raising a turtle for the first time.

What to do if the bottom of the turtle shell is a little rotten.

Hope it can help you, dear!

Dear, is there anything else you need me to help you answer?

Well. It's over, how to deal with it.

Hello, redness needs to be applied iodophor oh dear!

Wash the wound immediately with hydrogen peroxide.

It is normal for the shell to crack.

Clause. 1. Cracking of turtle shells can be a precursor to shelling, especially water turtles, which means they have grown up;

Clause. 2. During this period, the turtle is weak and prone to illness. The pool water must be clean, and the breeding environment must be clean. It is normal for it to shed a layer of shell every year when it grows up;

Clause. 3. Turtles in normal health will automatically fall off one by one when they shed their shells.

There are two sequences:

1.First, the carapace is removed, and then the abdominal carapace is removed after side grinding.

2.First the ventral carapace, then the carapace.

When a turtle sheds its shell, it does not look like other animals. Talking about Qichun's retreat, it is complete and continuous, but scattered. The shelling time can be as short as a few days and as long as 1 to 3 months. If fed well, it will disappear quickly. The higher the temperature, the faster the growth.

You can tell if this is normal molting or nail fungus.

This is a manifestation of tortoise rot nail disease, which some people also call rot nail disease.

**: Damage to the tortoiseshell leads to bacterial infection.

**: Disinfect with hydrogen peroxide first, then apply potassium permanganate crystal powder directly to the affected area.

Note that the water level should not exceed the affected area, so as not to dissolve the potassium permanganate crystal powder in water and affect the efficacy.

Take care to keep the water fresh. The water is turbid or smelly, and it should be cleaned up and replaced in time.

Trend of rotten nails.

Apply some povidone-iodine to dry for a while.

It's rotten nails.

The limbs also felt a little swollen.

Whether the water quality has not been kept clean recently is the same as the use of medicines.

The water is kept clean.

Not less than 22 or also cold.

This can be the case with nail rot and rot. Pharmacy buy (1.)Baiduobang can also be used as an alternative to chlortetracycline eye height) and 2Yunnan Baiyao spray (povidone-iodine solution can also replace Yunnan, and the effect is better).

It is recommended to semi-dry raising, that is, soak in water 3 times a day for about 15-30 minutes each time, the water temperature can be warm to the touch of your hand, and the breeding box should be covered.

Cover and leave a small slit for ventilation.

It can play a role in heat preservation.

If you don't add a warming stick, soak in the water for 15 minutes and it will almost be cold.

Take out the tortoise.

Dry in the vivarium.

Wait for the next soak.

The medication step is to apply chlortetracycline before soaking in water, which can be waterproof and anti-inflammatory.

Soak in water for 30 minutes.

Turtle wipe dry and take it out.

Spray Yunnan Baiyao. Turtles have a normal water temperature of 25-28, below 22 and are prone to colds. Do not raise turtles with directly connected tap water.

There is chlorine and bleach in the water.

Leave the water on for more than 1 day.

Make sure the water is warm during soaking.

You can tell if it's a normal molt or nail rot.

1.Molting is the process of aging, shedding, and showing new armor on each shield armor of the turtle, which usually indicates that the turtle is growing. When molting, the edge of each shield begins to change color, layer, and fall off. The most obvious and exaggerated molting phenomenon is the Brazilian tortoise. ­

So does the tortoise (Chinese grass tortoise) shed its shell? ­

Molt! The small patches of waxy material floating on the surface of the water where the turtles are raised are the molts of the turtles (some of the floats are molts).

The molting of the Chinese grass turtle is relatively gentle, not as flamboyant as the Brazilian turtle!

Nail rot **: The carapace is ulcerated due to damage or crushing of the carapace, allowing germs to invade the tortoiseshell.

Symptoms: The dorsal or ventral carapace of the turtle initially appears white spots, which slowly form red spots, and blood oozes out when pressed hard, and there is a rancid smell. In severe cases, the surface of the carapace will ulcerate into holes, and the armpits and crotch will bulge.

Sick turtles stop eating and move less, and there is a phenomenon of head shrinkage.

This can be the case with nail rot and rot. Pharmacy buy (1.)Baiduobang can also be used as an alternative to chlortetracycline eye height) and 2

Yunnan Baiyao spray is used in combination. It is recommended that semi-dry cultivation is to soak in water 3 times a day for about 15-30 minutes each time, the water temperature can be warmed to the touch of your hand, the breeding box should be covered with a cover to leave a small slit for ventilation can play a role in heat preservation If you do not add a warming rod, soak the water for 20 minutes and it will be almost cool Take out the turtle Dry and put it in the breeding box Wait for the next soaking in water The medication step is to soak in water before chlortetracycline can be waterproof and anti-inflammatory After soaking in water for 30 minutes, the turtle is dried and taken out Spray Yunnan Baiyao. Turtles have a normal water temperature of 25-28, below 22 and are prone to colds.

Do not use directly connected tap water to raise turtles There is chlorine and bleach powder in the water Connect the water and leave it for more than 1 day Ensure the water temperature during the soaking period.

Analyze whether it is rotten armor or normal shell replacement.
