The grass turtle hasn t eaten for more than a week, what should I do?

There are many reasons why grass turtles may not eat. First of all, the grass turtle is a relatively timid animal, and suddenly entering an unfamiliar environment may cause it to not eat. At this point, you can wait for it to become accustomed to the environment before feeding.

If the newly bought grass turtle is too young, it may not take the initiative to eat. In addition, if the ambient temperature is too low, it will cause it to fall into a dormant state and not eat. Finally, if a grass turtle has a disease, it can also affect its appetite and even not eat.

Treatment method 1 water temperature: The water temperature is too low to reach the temperature at which the grass turtle feeds, which will not only make the grass turtle feel uncomfortable, but also make them eat less. At this time, you can increase the water temperature appropriately and keep it at about 23.

2. Environment: Grass turtles are generally unable to feed on land. If the food is not placed in the right place, the water level is shallow, or it is placed directly on land, the grass turtle will not be able to eat. At this point, the feeding position should be changed and the food should be placed in the water.

3. Food: Some foods are not suitable for the appetite of grass turtles, so you should feed some fresh foods such as small fish and shrimp instead.

4. The age of the turtle is too low: At this time, keep the environment quiet, and feed it every day, and wait for it to take the initiative to speak.

5. Physical factors: Sometimes grass turtles will be unable to eat or eat less due to eye diseases or gastrointestinal diseases. At this point, it should be done for the condition** so that it can be restored to health as soon as possible.

Hello. My tortoise hasn't eaten for a week.

Speak, dear.

Hello, happy with your question.

About: What to do if my baby turtle hasn't eaten for a week. Who's going to help me.

Although the turtle is an aquatic animal, it still has a strong hunger tolerance. If you don't eat it for a week, you won't die. But you have to determine whether it is healthy or not, and if it is caused by illness, you need to treat the symptoms**.

In addition, the turtle's eating habits and food needs should also be fed scientifically according to its preferences. First of all, I want to know clearly how old your turtle is, how old it is, how it was fed before, and what obvious symptoms it has now.

Hello, typing takes time, don't you rush.

My turtle is over 10 years old.

I don't see any symptoms.

It's just not as happy as it used to be.

This kind of thing doesn't need to be seen, it needs to be clear, some diseases can't be seen, understand, such as infectious diseases, visceral lesions, if you really think about the turtle, you should check it first, determine the **, and prescribe the right medicine.

Looking at the water temperature, turtles are most active when the temperature is between 25-30 degrees. Try to warm the feeding, the turtle is in a new environment, it takes a few days to get used to the environment, don't tease the turtle during the period, keep the turtle still, put some food into it every day, take it out if you don't eat it after an hour, and continue the next day, as long as it is a healthy turtle, it will eat slowly.

What do turtles eat:

Nourish with soft water (i.e. plain water).

Give it nutritious food (fish, shrimp, raw pork).

After feeding it, it is best to change the water immediately, especially when feeding pork, pork will form a layer of oil film on the water surface after soaking for a long time, and the turtle will be bad for the eyes after soaking for a long time, you will see that there is a white film on its eyes, just give it some eye drops at this time. (If it doesn't get better, remember to take it to the doctor!) ）

Don't let it soak in water all the time, just half of its body.

Change the water once a day.

It is very important to stick to it every day and cultivate feelings!

When you have free time, you can bask in the sun or swim in the big tank.

When changing the water, remember to use water to flush it, if the water quality is not good, with a strong smell of bleach, it is best not to use.

Here are some reasons and how to fix them:

1. It is normal for turtles to hibernate when the temperature is less than 13 degrees.

2. Some little turtles have eye disease, because they can't see things, so they can't see what they eat, you must help them check their bodies. In the past, there were accidents where baby turtles starved to death due to eye disease.

3. It is still related to the body of the little turtle, there may be gastrointestinal problems or other problems, and it is better to seek medical attention as soon as possible.

4. The so-called "special turtle food" is generally best not fed, because it is impossible to judge the advantages and disadvantages. It's not good to eat.

5. The turtle that is too small can not eat, and it will sleep after being hungry for a long time, and the turtle that is too small often can't wake up when it is dormant, so it should be fed more to avoid it from dormant, and when it grows to a size larger than a matchbox, it will generally eat by itself.

6. There are other reasons for not eating: the environment is unfamiliar; cold, not eating; I have never eaten fish or meat.

The container was replaced with a large vat that it could not climb out of, and the fish was cut up and fed to it.
