    Pooping every day proves that it is normal, and it does not eat because it has just arrived in a new environment and is not very familiar, you can use some live food to lure it, such as small fish, small shrimp and the like. Don't put too much water, put a brick in the container where you keep turtles

    If there is a bowel movement, it is not a big deal, it means that the temperature is enough, but what color poop is? Black is fine.

    You just bought it, right? I haven't gotten used to it yet. After two days of resting, the temperature is controlled at 25-28, and the fishy smell is eaten today. For example, pork liver is the best, and then use lean meat, mealworms and the like, it's okay, don't worry.

    Summary. Hello dear, the turtle does not defecate and eats all the time is constipation, the reason is 1, improper feeding: the reason why the turtle is constipated is mainly because of improper feeding.

    Long-term feeding of a single food causes it to be deficient in certain nutrients, resulting in constipation. In this regard, it is necessary to pay attention to changing the feed, but also to mix it reasonably, not only to feed some meat, but also to provide some vegetables. 2. Severe dehydration

    If the turtle is dehydrated, it can also cause constipation. Under normal circumstances, the temperature of raising turtles should not be too high, although they usually have to bask in the sun, but the sun should not be too long, and most of the time they have to soak it in water, so that it is not easy to get dehydrated.

    If a baby turtle doesn't eat for a long time, but just has a bowel movement, there could be several reasons:

    1.Temperature: Turtles need a certain temperature for digestion and feeding.

    If the ambient temperature is too low, the turtle's appetite will also be affected. Typically, turtles need a temperature between 25-30 degrees Celsius. If the ambient temperature is too low, consider using a heating device to increase the ambient temperature.

    2.Health conditions: Turtles may also be reluctant to eat if they have health problems, such as indigestion or illness.

    In this case, you can observe the action and state of the turtle, whether there is any abnormality in filial piety, such as frequently rubbing the eyes, body, tortoise shell with the front paws for ulcers, whether there is an abscess and so on. If there are any of these abnormalities, you need to take it to the vet hospital in time**.

    3.Food problems: Baby turtles may also be reluctant to eat if they are fed inappropriate or unhealthy food.

    For example, feeding too much fatty foods, such as beef, or meat that has gone bad, can cause indigestion or diarrhea in the tortoise. In addition, if the food is not the right size, it can also cause the baby turtle to not be able to feed properly. Therefore, you can try to change different food types or adjust the size of the food to suit the needs of the baby turtle.

    If none of the above methods work, it is recommended to take the baby turtle He Shen Tuan to see a veterinarian to check its health and appetite problems.

    Summary. First, the temperature is low.

    In general, when the temperature is below 25 degrees, the turtle's appetite will be reduced to a large extent, or even no appetite. Therefore, under normal circumstances, after the turtle wakes up from hibernation, it is necessary to analyze whether the turtle should eat according to the temperature. If the temperature is below 25 degrees for a long time (more than 3 days), it is generally normal for the turtle not to eat; If the temperature is higher than 25 degrees for a long time (more than 3 days), the turtle still does not eat, it is not normal.

    For turtles that are caused by low temperatures, the treatment is to go with the flow, and when the temperature rises, the turtles will naturally eat.

    Why don't turtles eat and poop?

    1. Low temperatureUnder normal circumstances, when the temperature is below 25 degrees, the turtle's appetite will be reduced to a large extent, or even no appetite. Therefore, under normal circumstances, after the turtle wakes up from hibernation, it is necessary to analyze whether the turtle should eat according to the temperature.

    For turtles that are caused by low temperatures, the treatment is to go with the flow, and when the temperature rises, the turtles will naturally eat.

    Unfamiliarity with the environment causes the turtle not to eat. The main manifestation is that after some turtles are bought, the new environment will make the turtles feel unfamiliar, uneasy and even fearful. In this case, it usually takes 3-7 days for the turtle to eat, and some turtles with poor acceptance of the new environment even take 1-2 weeks to eat.

    For turtles that do not eat due to such reasons, the treatment method is to provide a safe and comfortable environment for the turtle as much as possible, minimize the interference to the turtle, and let the turtle adapt to the new environment as soon as possible.

    The turtle does not eat because it has a disease. Some diseases, such as white eye disease, pneumonia, gastrointestinal diseases, etc., can cause the turtle to lose appetite, anorexia and refusal to eat. In this case, the turtle will only eat after the symptomatic ** disease.

    Summary. Hello, dear. My turtle has eaten, but it hasn't had a bowel movement for several days, it's not indigestion, it's too cold.

    You can soak it in warm water at a fixed time every day for at least 1 hour. Or soak it in hot water with "turtle protector". If you don't pull the turtle for too long, the turtle will have enteritis.

    Also, because your turtle is growing taller, all the food is digested, and only a little bit of poop can be excreted, and that little poop can't be seen in the water, it's almost like dust.

    Dear, it's time for the turtle to hibernate, it doesn't need to eat when it hibernates. Not pooping may be in storage capacity in preparation for hibernation.

    Kiss. Soak in lukewarm water.

    In the past, the water had to be put every day, but now after a few days, the water is clear and will not be dirty.

    Do you soak every day, how long do you soak a day, and change the cold water after soaking?

    It's been seven or eight days. Pro, an hour a day. Warm water is fine, don't burn it.

    It is impossible for a turtle to excrete immediately after eating, because the turtle's metabolism is slow, so it takes a long time to excrete.

    It's normal for a few days. My tortoise is only once every three days, sometimes longer. If you eat normally and move actively, you don't have to worry.

    But beware, Brazilian turtles can also be constipated.

    Brazilian tortoises prefer meat when they are young, because they eat a lot of meat and lack of fiber, and they start to be constipated.

    Turtle constipation**:

    After feeding, especially in spring and autumn, when the ambient temperature changes greatly between day and night, the function of the turtle's digestive organs will be weakened. At the same time, the decrease in temperature makes the cloaca pores of the turtle tighten, and the bait eaten into the body cannot be digested and excreted normally, so that the feces cannot be discharged normally, and the accumulation becomes harder and harder, which eventually leads to the rupture of the intestinal tube and the death of the turtle.

    Symptoms]: Sick turtles often shrink their heads, do not eat, and have no feces to excrete.

    **]: For turtles suffering from this disease, immediately move to a place with a higher temperature (generally around 27°C). Squeeze into the cloaca hole with the cork, and block the cloaca hole with a cotton ball to prevent the liquid from flowing out, 10 minutes later, take out the cotton ball, depending on whether there is feces discharged, if not, you can continue to use the drug, but the turtle with severe disease is generally ineffective.
