    1. It may be caused by molting, growth or calcium deficiency in turtles. If possible, you can add calcium tablets to food, or let the turtle bask in the sun more.

    2. If the surface of the turtle shell is smooth and normal, it may be a simple albino mutation and can be ignored.

    Note that the water quality of turtle breeding must be pure water, not tap water, otherwise turtles and turtles are prone to white eye disease. If there is a large difference in size between the two turtles in a pot, they should be kept separately.

    The turtle has a little white on its back, and the first thing to tell is whether it is a hydroalkali deposition or a fungal infection, as both of these causes can cause the tortoiseshell to turn white. There are three simple ways to do this: Put the turtle in the water, if it is a water alkali deposit, the white color will gradually fade until it disappears, and if it is a fungal infection, it will not change much.

    Water alkali is the scale deposition of hard water, which is alkaline, so use a toothbrush to dip some vinegar and brush it on the tortoise shell, what can be brushed off is water alkali, and if you can't brush it, it is a fungal infection. Observationally, the surface of the aqueous alkali deposits is generally rough, covering a large area of tortoise shells, and fungal infections generally spread from one or several points to the surrounding areas.

    Fungal infections are contagious, so isolate turtles as soon as they are found to have fungal infections** to avoid infecting other turtles. In addition, it is much easier to ** in the early stage, and if you don't get ** for a long time, the consequences can be fatal, so it is best to detect it early and ** early**.

    If the turtle is healthy and it has been determined that the white spots are a fungal infection, it is relatively easy, but as with a human fungal infection, it takes some time and patience. For water turtles and semi-water turtles, the method is as follows: take the turtle out of the tank and clean the tank thoroughly.

    Put the turtle in a container with water temperature of 26, add two spoonfuls of salt to the water, let the turtle soak in the salt water for about 15 minutes, 1 or 2 times a day for 4 or 5 days, remove the turtle from the water and dry it for about an hour, then put it back in the tank. It is recommended to mix together, but turtles that do not get sick should also do a salt bath for a period of time to sterilize. If the area of fungal infection spread is relatively large, then you need medicine to help**, take the turtle out of the tank, wait for it to dry completely, use a cotton swab to apply sulfadiazine silver cream or terbinafine hydrochloride ointment to the fungal spots, once a day, after applying the medicine, it should be dried for a period of time, so that the drug can work, you can apply the medicine during the day, put it back in the water at night, and wipe off the medicine before putting it back in the water.

    If possible, keep the turtle in a warmer place around 26 during dry rearing. Stick to daily medications and notice if the shell is starting to improve.

    For tortoises, the method is similar, the turtle is brushed clean, dried and then smeared with drugs**, it should be noted that the bedding should be replaced, to ensure the cleanliness of the breeding box, to ensure the ventilation of the breeding box, to control the temperature and humidity of the breeding box, but also to pay attention to whether the polyculture of the turtles have the behavior of attacking each other, if there is, to feed separately, trauma is also one of the ways to lead to fungal infection.

    The turtle should be given a good living environment, the water should be changed regularly, and the terrarium should be cleaned regularly. Maintain a balanced diet and add vitamin supplements to your turtle's diet. Ensuring adequate UVB light or sunlight exposure and providing a large enough sunning area for it to be completely out of the water, sunlighting is essential for turtle health as it not only dries out and kills the turtle, but also keeps the turtle at the temperature and heat it needs.

    Provide the turtle with the right water temperature and avoid contamination of the water with leftover food. It is inevitable that the turtle will get sick, try to find it in time, give the right **, and the possibility of recovery will be the greatest.

    One is that you have rotten skin disease, which is caused by a bacillary infection. Due to the carapace being damaged or squeezed, the germs invade the tortoise shell, resulting in carapace ulceration, and the affected part of the tortoise is ulcerated and the epidermis is whitish. The prevention and treatment method is to first remove the lesion from the affected area and apply it with chlortetracycline eye ointment, 1 time a day.

    If the turtle eats on its own, oxytetracycline powder can be added to the food; If the turtle has stopped eating, chlortetracycline can be applied and the sick turtle can be fed in isolation. Do not release water to feed, so as not to aggravate the condition. After the turtle recovers, it is reared in a human pond.

    Another easy way to do this is to use water with a little sea salt. Put the turtle in immersion for more than 1 hour. After that, take it out and take it to the place where you usually raise it.

    In addition, it is usually given less pork. Beef and other high-calorie foods. Pay attention to frequent water changes.

    Don't give it anything to eat just yet. It will be fine in a few days. )
