How to deal with turtle molting?

Turtle molting can be done by itself, and the owner only needs to supplement the turtle with nutrition. In addition, the owner had better not pull out the shell that the tortoise is about to fall off, so as not to cause harm. If it is found that the turtle's molting is fresh or hard, it will get sick from time to time, and it needs to be isolated in time, changed with water and rested with salt. If there is crustacean corruption, it is recommended to seek medical advice in time.

Treatment method of turtle molting

It is normal for turtles to shed their skin. Generally, turtles can molt themselves. The owner had better not interfere with pulling out the upturned nail plate on the turtle body, otherwise the turtle shell will be injured and bleed. At this time, what the owner needs to do is to supplement the turtle with nutrition as much as possible, so that the turtle can finish molting as soon as possible.

Generally speaking, turtles shed their shells from carapace to carapace, or from carapace to carapace. Generally, after molting, it is complete, continuous and scattered. If the edge of the tortoise's shell is found to be tilted upwards, a relatively fresh shell is exposed, and it is very hard, which is generally a precursor to rotten nails.

In this regard, it is recommended that the owner change the water in time and put in the right amount of raw salt to prevent the growth of bacteria. At the same time, pay attention to the turtle's mental state. If the tortoise has symptoms such as loss of appetite, listlessness and rotten shell, it is recommended to deal with it professionally in time.
