    The pearl turtle belongs to the semi-water turtle, which needs to be raised in water, and it is given small fish or shrimp to eat, and when it arrives in a new environment, it will need to adapt to it for a few days before eating.

    If the wound does not show the flesh, it can be raised in water. The water is over the back, but there should be a stone platform exposed to the water for it to bask in the sun and sleep, you can directly feed small feed fish or small shrimp, but you must cut off the shrimp guns at the head and tail, of course, they are not easy to catch, so you can also use the bloodworms of the fish to feed for it.

    If there is an external injury, try to soak in water during the day and dry raise it at night (as long as you ensure that it is moist and not soaked in water, it must be carried out in water when feeding) If you eat, you can use raw lean meat, shrimp meat, and small fish to try! (Don't use the live one for the time being, it's not very adaptable to the change of environment, and it's inevitable to feel scared if you get a live creature to feed it!) )

    Pearls love rotten skin and rotten nails. The requirements for water quality are high, if you are not too troublesome, go to the fish market to buy some aquarium mud, of course, with filtration! It's okay for them to stay in the mud!

    Give it a regular bath with oxytetracycline every day, one tablet, and it's okay to soak it all day, how much water you want to put depends on your mind. Apply anti-inflammatory ointment at night, any brand will do, only wipe the affected area, change the water every day, it is best to eat after pulling, don't be afraid that it is not used to water quality, of course, it is better to dry, let it adapt to the water quality as soon as possible, of course, if your water quality is too poor, there is nothing to say!

    In summer, they are watered during the day and dry at night, in order not to lose too much water, which is watered all day long when they are sick and healthy, fed more, all kinds of food, biomimetic.

    Pulling black means that the disease period has not passed, pay more attention to observation, see what kind of is healthy, and make comparisons.

    I have a pearl, close to the adult turtle, I took it for more than a month, and after a few days, I had a problem, and I adjusted it according to the above method! In the past few days, I have just started eating, only eating red worms, I have to slowly plan its diet, when I brought it, there was a swollen lump on the neck, now it is basically healed, I plan to put it in the turtle group as soon as possible, so that it can adapt to the environment faster. (In addition, I recommend feeding more earthworms, loaches, and small fish in summer, which will help them be healthy, but be aware that earthworms cannot be fed in the tank, it is best to store a separate container, it is too easy to muddy water, and must be washed before feeding, and ensure survival.)

    It's best to let them drain it before putting it in the tank. Spending time in the sun can help with digestion and calcium absorption, but make sure there is both yang and yin in the summer. For specific details, you have to take a look at some of the experiences on the Internet, and you can also have your own set of experiences!

    Rotten.

    Carry it to a place where direct sunlight can be raised, change more water, eat more omnivorous food, and do not eat single. Sunlight is the first priority.

    Cut small fish, small shrimp, and baby turtle food are all available.

    It is better not to hibernate if it is very small, it is easy to hang up, and it can be warmed in winter.

    The turtle is an omnivore, you can feed some dried shrimp, shredded meat, snails or something, and then feed the dried shrimp with water bubbles, and of course the snail must be shelled. The feeding stuff can't be too big, just cut it smaller. Of course, the water can't freeze during hibernation.

    My turtle was frozen in ice last year, but luckily it was a little bigger and didn't freeze.

    When the water temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius, it enters the hibernation period; The water temperature is around 15 degrees Celsius and crawls slightly; The water temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius, and you can move and eat; The water temperature is above 22 degrees Celsius, and the amount of activity and food increases. Miscellaneous, daily feeding conditions can be fed pork, fish, shrimp, etc., especially like to eat millet shrimp, feed 3 times a week, each time the amount of food according to the turtle weight of 5, can also be appropriately increased, but can not be increased suddenly, should be gradual, so that it gradually adapts, so as not to cause indigestion. Turtles generally only feed in water.

    If you are raised in water, remember to change the water frequently, otherwise you will get sick. When you have time, let the turtles bask in the sun, and do more activities to increase their appetite.

    Hello, I also have a pearl turtle, and I also encountered the kind of problem that my friend, please, what should I do?

    I don't understand the above text, what problem you have to turn to.

    As for what you ask the turtle to eat, it depends on how old your turtle is, if it is a small turtle seedling, the turtle food is enough to deal with it, if the conditions allow, buy some dried shrimp from river shrimp, the kind that does not have a salty taste, can help the turtle supplement calcium, and then bask in the sun regularly every day, it is perfect. When the pearl turtle grows bigger, it is mainly vegetarian, of course, it is no problem to continue to feed turtle food and dried shrimp, but it is not recommended to feed meat, people are vegetarian turtles

    Pearl turtles are more prone to rotting, so you have to pay attention to the cleanliness of the water If you still have any questions, ask me directly, more or less understand a little bit, and learn from each other!

    Turtles have a wide range of food, rice, wheat, peas, small fish, shrimp, insects, snails, etc., and the favorite foods are small fish, snails, corn and rice. In captivity, in order to meet the various nutrients needed for the growth of turtles and avoid stunted growth and anorexia due to single feed, a variety of feeds should be used, such as fish and shrimp, snails, mussels, etc. in animal feed and rice, wheat, corn, etc. in plant feed. In order for the turtle to fully digest the feed, the corn and peas must be crushed and soaked for about 2 hours before feeding, and other large pieces of food must also be chopped before feeding.

    It should also be noted that at different stages of the turtle's growth, feed with different nutrients should be given according to its growth characteristics.

    Is it raised in water?Or is it dry-raised?

    If there is a crack in the shell, on the abdominal carapace, but not broken (i.e., bleeding, exposed flesh), it is a dent, then you should consider giving your tortoise a birthday - this is normal, indicating that the tortoise is growing.

    The shell of the Brazilian turtle was found to have strange colors, dark red, dark green, and earthy yellow, as if it had a layer of things, but everything else was normal, then the turtle was dyed by the turtle dealer, don't worry. Other turtles are not commonly dyed, and this happens to Brazilian turtles (I've seen ...... of dyeing western turtles).)

    The symptoms are that there is a problem with the dorsal armor and the abdominal armor, which is rotting and breaking. And the breach smells fishy.

    **Drugs recommended) erythromycin ointment, potassium permanganate (available in pharmacies), petroleum jelly (for deep breakage).

    **Method Mild: The affected area is disinfected with potassium permanganate (if the tablet is dissolved with water), then filled with erythromycin ointment. Dry culture for 2 hours, during which erythromycin ointment is applied every 15 minutes. 3 times a day.

    Severe: Use a clean toothpick or blade (a Swiss knife is also into...).Blanch it with boiling water to sterilize) Gently scrape off the rot – just a shallow layer is fine!Then do the same as above, and finally seal with petroleum jelly.

    Dry feeding throughout the day, at least three times a day. For the feeding method, please refer to the feeding method in the case of "pneumonia**" above.

    **Equipment Clean blade or toothpick, above medication, syringe or dropper (for water feeding).

    Other mild cases of crustacea can also be raised in water, but remember that the water quality is hygienic. If it is a heavy rot on the dorsal armor (not the stomach), then you can make a small basin instead of water, and put not as much water as the dorsal armor, and let the turtle drink it by itself.

    It takes a certain amount of time to rot the armor, not to take effect in a short time. I spent more than a month on a badly rotted grass turtle.

    There are two main points: first: soak potassium permanganate solution twice a day for 20-30 minutes at a time. Second, scrub the affected area with alcohol after soaking, it doesn't matter if the area is larger, especially at night before going to bed.

    I don't know if it's suitable for pearl turtles, you can try it. Or hold on for a little longer.

    Don't worry about that, I don't know what breed of turtle you are, but I can give you a few suggestions:

    1. Temperature, as others have said before, it is necessary to maintain a temperature above 24 before the turtle begins to like to eat, otherwise it is indeed a bit difficult to eat.

    2. You may not be able to adapt to the new environment, put the food in the water, and then find a quiet and undisturbed environment for the turtle to stay, and maybe it will eat.

    3. See if there is a problem with the turtle's eyes, if there are obvious symptoms such as bulging swelling and whitening, it should be **, because the turtle may not be able to see the real thing because of vision problems.

    5. Don't be hungry, the tortoise is really tenacious, so there is no need to be so anxious, weigh the tortoise, if you find that the weight of the tortoise has been significantly reduced after a while, then you should pay attention.

    The above is the various possibilities I analyzed, you can see if it is possible.

    ps: The water for raising turtles must be dried for a period of time before use. If there is no filtration system, it is recommended to change it every 2-3 days (Brazilian turtles are dirty, so change them more frequently). Give the turtle a regular sunbath. Pay attention to supplementing vitamins, calcium and other trace elements.

    Just bought the pearl turtle, due to the change of the environment, there is a phenomenon of not eating is normal, it is also related to the weather, the turtle eats very little in winter, if you have the conditions you can try to feed some small raw meat, fish is the turtle's favorite, if you are not afraid, you can divide the fish into several segments with scissors, so that your pearl turtle may eat.

  17. Anonymous users2024-01-28

    I don't know if you are **, turtles are more sensitive to environmental temperature, if it is 25-30 degrees today, the turtle eats very well, tomorrow if it is 25 degrees or slightly higher turtles will obviously eat much less. The temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn varies greatly, and it is normal for turtles to eat less, and you can feed them once a day or once a week.

I can tell you: others are very understanding of stuttering people, no one wants to be like this, you don't care too much, there are many friendly people around, you can speak slowly, first among the people you are familiar with, and then among the people you are not familiar with, slow down the speed of speech, and slowly it will be fine. A friend of mine stutters, but he's relaxed, slow-moving, and does a great job of publicity.
