The sickness of the Brazilian tortoise, what disease can the Brazilian tortoise get

I thought I was scolding the Brazilian players.

Generally speaking, turtles are more adaptable and resistant to disease, and are less susceptible to disease. When breeding in captivity, as long as you pay attention to cleaning and sanitation at all times, and often change the water in the breeding pond, the turtle will generally not get sick. Sometimes, however, diseases and predators such as the following can occur

1.Cold Sick turtles are slow to move, their nose is bubbling, and their mouth is often open, which can be regarded as a cold. Method:

The turtle can be dissolved in water with cold spirit and analgin, and 0·2 ml of gentamicin can be injected into the muscle of the turtle's hind legs; Or inject 10,000 units of penicillin, and large turtles weighing more than 0.5 kg can increase the dosage to 50,000 units per injection. Generally, it can be cured after 3 days of continuous medication and injection. 2.

Enteritis is mostly caused by intestinal bacteria infection caused by water pollution or feed spoilage. The symptoms are that the head of the sick turtle often looks left and right, and the stool is sticky and blood-red"and extremely fishy; Loss of appetite and emaciation. Method:

Change the water and feed fresh bait several times a day; Intramuscular injection of chlortetracycline or chloramphenicol, each sick turtle per milliliter, and the injection amount of large turtles weighing more than kilograms can be increased to 1 milliliter for 3 consecutive days. and add a small amount of chloramphenicol or dysentery to the bait and feed it. 3.

Mycosis This disease is mostly caused by mold infection after the turtle epidermis is bruised, and it is manifested as reddish-white epidermal necrosis and severe visible mold. Prevention and control methods: In the process of transportation, stocking, and transfer pool capture, the operation should be careful to avoid injury to the turtle body.

If a turtle is injured before entering the pool, apply 1% malachite green ointment or sulfonamide ointment to the affected area. Once a sick turtle is found, it should be isolated in time and disinfected with 20%-30% lime water; The whole body of the sick turtle is coated with purple potion for 7 days, and a small amount of oxytetracycline powder can also be added to the feed for 3 days. 4.

Molluscum This disease is mostly caused by malnutrition and lack of sunlight and is manifested by loss of appetite, general weakness, listlessness, sluggishness, and slow growth. **Method: Feed with full price feed with good palatability and rich nutrition, and add calcium tablets to the feed; Enhance the number of sunshine hours, and expose the sun to sunlight 2 to 3 times a day.

5.Predators The natural predators of turtles are mainly rats, ants, snakes, and certain birds. Rats are the most harmful, can bite turtles or even bite to death, ants often crawl to eat turtle eggs with cracks, so in the management of breeding, attention should be paid to prevent the invasion of these natural enemies.

If there is a problem with the water quality, change the water every day and use tap water that has been left for 1-2 days.

There should be a turtle island in the turtle tank, so that the turtle can climb up to bask in the sun during the day. Turtles have a strong vitality, as long as they eat, have good water quality, and have sun exposure, the probability of self-recovery is very high.

It's okay to be positive**, but there is no authoritative method, drug, or hospital right now, and it's often one of two outcomes: quick recovery, or quick death. Personally, I'm more conservative**.

Before soaking potassium permanganate, give the turtle boiled water, and the potion should not be too high to avoid accidental ingestion.
