1. Handstand water control: After finding that the turtle is drowning, you need to fish it out of the water as soon as possible, because the water has entered the lungs, so do not lay it flat after fishing, but put it upside down, and pat it on the back at the same time, so that it can spit out some water, be careful not to shoot too hard.

2. Turn over and press: In addition to inverting the water control, you can also turn it over and put it on the ground, so that its abdominal armor is facing up, and then knock its dorsal armor, which can compress the lungs and empty the residual water.

3. Restore breathing: After the water in the lungs is emptied, the next thing to do is to help it breathe. At this time, you need to lay the turtle flat first, and then gently stretch its forelimbs with your hands, be sure to pull alternately, so that its lungs can breathe normally, and wait until it has breath.

Turtles will drown. Although terrapids can swim, they do not have the ability to breathe underwater. Some sea turtles that are not strong swimmers are at risk of drowning if they enter deep water environments.

Many young turtles may encounter this situation, so even deep-water turtles should not be kept in deep water when they are young, and the water level can be slowly raised according to their growth. In addition, if you find that the turtle is choked by the water, you need to deal with it promptly.

Under normal circumstances, they will not drown, most of the water turtles live in the water, and the dependence on water is relatively high, and the turtle will not choke on water.

Immediately after a turtle chokes, gently press on its limbs with its head down, and stop pressing when the liquid is coming out of its mouth and nose. If the condition of choking is more severe, it is necessary to rest for a period of time, keep fresh water feeding, and feed anti-inflammatory drugs**. In order to avoid choking again, the water level needs to be adjusted in time, and the water level can not exceed the turtle shell.

When a turtle chokes on water, it should immediately press its head down and gently press on its limbs, and pause when it notices liquid coming out of its mouth and nose. Apply the pressure again after a period of time until all the water has been drained.

If the turtle chokes on water is more severe, it needs to rest for a period of time, and then keep it in fresh water, try to lower the water level, during which time you need to stop feeding, feed an appropriate amount of anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics, and avoid lung infection.

In order to avoid the turtle choking again, it is recommended to adjust the water level in time, and the water level can not exceed the turtle shell. You can also place stones in the tank to make a small platform, which is convenient for the turtle to dry its back and live a peaceful life in the water tank.

Summary. Hello and happy to answer for you: Immediately after the turtle chokes on water, press its head down, press on all limbs, and pause the compressions after the liquid flows out of the mouth and nose. Apply another compression at regular intervals until all the water is drained.

Hello, dear, I am very happy to answer for you: After the turtle chokes on water, it should be immediately sleepy or put its head down, press the limbs, and suspend the compressions after the liquid flows out of the mouth and nose.

In order to avoid choking on the turtle, the keeper can also build a slope-style hill in the pond to maintain a stable water quality environment. It gives the turtle a chance to go ashore to breathe and rest, and at the same time live a quiet and stable life in the water.

Hello, the turtle seems to have choked on water last night, and today the four are weak, and the head is pulling, what should I do?

With your head down, press on your limbs, pausing when fluid is draining from your nose and mouth. Apply another compression at regular intervals until all the water is drained.

You can try it like this.

The problem is that I read on the Internet that it needs to be dried up, and I just put it into the water and said to drink some water, and then hold it out of the water and stand upside down, how to pour it out of the nose and the water in the mouth.

If it needs to be dried up, it will not become dehydrated.

You can occasionally dry up and raise it, dear.

Press on the extremities. Alas.

Can I put it in the water?

A tortoise choking will not heal itself, so you need to help it get rid of the water.

The turtle should be raised in water, and the water level only needs to be higher than the turtle shell to facilitate the turtle to breathe.

Are you too high?

The turtle opens its mouth and makes a rattling sound because it has pneumonia and will often swim sideways in the water and stretch its neck to make a call.

A turtle will also open its mouth to make a sound when it chokes on water, usually because it is frightened in the water, or if it suddenly enters the water, it will cause it to choke. Turtles often choke on water, which can easily lead to pneumonia.

The turtle will also open its mouth to make a sound when it has a cold, and its spirit is getting worse and worse, and its activity is not high, so it is best to warm the turtle in time, keep the water clean, and let it bask in the sun more, and it will gradually get better.

The reason why it is sick is that the water temperature is too low or the temperature difference is too large, so you need to pay attention to keeping warm, and then soak it with amoxicillin and roxithromycin**, and you can also feed it.

** method for turtles to get pneumonia:

1. Increase the water temperature to more than 28, and put some anti-inflammatory drugs in the water.

2. Turtles will eat in this environment for about a week. Pay attention to change the turtle's water every day, bacteria breed quickly in a high temperature environment, and infrequent water change will affect the turtle's body.

3. After the turtle begins to eat, it begins to carry out pneumonia, usually by the method of irrigation, three times a day, each time feeding one-third of amoxicillin powder aqueous solution, into the turtle's mouth.

4. Usually inject the prepared potion into the belly of the small fish and feed it to the turtle and turtle. If your turtle is willing to eat steamed buns, you can mix one-third of amoxicillin powder into the small steamed bun pieces and knead them well, and feed them to the turtles.
