How to treat the mouth disease of the baby turtle, what should the baby turtle do if it does not ope

Hunger strike. Just bought it like this.

Baby turtles that don't open their mouths may be hibernating.

In winter, when the water temperature reaches 22°C, human antibiotics are mixed with the feed to enhance the turtle's disease resistance. When the water temperature drops to 14, the activity of the turtle decreases, most of the turtles sink to the bottom of the water, stop eating, a few turtles only eat a small amount, then the pond needs to be thoroughly cleared, and the turtle is checked, the content of the inspection includes **, head, feces, parasites, unhealthy turtles can not talk about hibernation, should be selected to raise alone, and raise the water temperature to more than 20 °C, so that the turtle eats the mountain brother, and at the same time take the corresponding measures.

In hibernation, occasionally the water temperature rises above 18C, do not feed to prevent the temperature from dropping at night, causing indigestion and other diseases. During the hibernation process, some abnormal turtles such as floating water and weak limbs should be fished out in time and kept in isolation. After hibernation, with the increase of temperature, the water temperature reaches about 16C, the turtle has a small amount of activity, some turtles have been able to forage, at this time can not be in a hurry to feed, should wait for the temperature difference between day and night does not exceed about 6 °C before feeding, the first feeding needs to be fully changed and disinfected.

Things to pay attention to when raising turtles:

1) The juvenile turtles, adult turtles and parent turtles should be raised separately to avoid the phenomenon of large turtles swallowing small turtles, and it is also convenient to determine the amount of feed and feeding management.

2) Turtles are gentle and timid, so they should be kept quiet around the turtle, so as not to affect the normal activities of turtles such as feeding, basking in the sun, mating, and laying eggs.

3) Change the water frequently, keep the water in the tank clean, and do a good job of hygiene to prevent turtles from getting sick.

4) The sand around the fish tank should maintain a certain humidity, and some cooling measures should be taken in summer, such as sprinkling.

5) Before the hibernation period, check the growth of the turtle, and the weak turtle should be fed more feed that they like to eat, so that the turtle can accumulate a lot of nutrients, grow strong and overwinter safely.

6) Some small turtles don't know how to eat, you can grab its left paw, pull out, and then grab its right paw, pull the two together slightly, it will poke out its head, and then gently pinch its head in the left and right directions, and when it opens its mouth, put a small fish or shrimp (food) into it, it will know what can be eaten, and you will bite two bites of the food you put in the future.

Hello, glad to answer for you. The turtle always opens its mouth may have pneumonia, you can put it in the water to see if it will float sideways, if it will, it means that it is sick and needs to be timed**. The disease is mainly caused by temperature changes, after which the turtle's appetite decreases, and at the same time it becomes lethargic and breathes with its mouth open.
