When observing turtles, don’t just pay attention to their beautiful swimming postures and naive ways of basking in the sun. You should also pay more attention to whether the turtle has any illnesses. Many things can be seen through our bright eyes!

It is very important to learn and observe the status of turtles on daily basis. For example, if there are any abnormalities in the turtle's body, whether there are any other illnesses, whether the turtle is active, etc. If you can observe on a daily basis and be able to observe, then your turtle will have a certain health guarantee, that is, if it is discovered and treated in time, it will be treated in time.

The so-called turtle observation is the following:

1. Water quality:

When observing water, you must pay attention to the color, transparency and other conditions of the water. Smell, the quality of the water is often a sign of unhealthy turtle health. Normal water has a turtle-like smell, but it is definitely not a bad smell. Sometimes there will be some small bugs in the water. When they appear, it means that the organic matter content in your turtle tank is too high [that is, the water is too nutritious and too fat]. In other words, viruses and bacteria will also suddenly appear. This means your turtle is in danger.

Generally, the quality of water can be judged by the turbidity of the water body. By observing the changes in the color of the water and some other indicators, the quality of the water can be analyzed to determine the amount and time of water change. Therefore, if you want to raise a turtle well, you can change the water regularly and quantitatively according to the actual situation to keep the water quality clean. It is necessary to remove floating foreign objects, foreign objects settled at the bottom of the tank, spoiled feed, feces, etc. If the water is heavily contaminated with foreign matter, extensive water changes are required.

2. Turtle status and food intake:

We must learn to look. That is to observe your turtle, we observe it from several aspects such as shape, appearance, body color, etc. Healthy turtles have no obvious external injuries and their body color and luster are normal. The body color of sick turtles will become lighter. And when your turtle is listless and always hiding in the corner without eating or playing, you need to pay more attention. I believe that the first step for many turtle friends to get up is to check the status of the turtle first, and then prepare to feed it. The status and food intake can be used to judge the turtle's physical condition and whether there is any disease

3. Turtle feces.

If you find white feces, jelly-like feces, or feces connected to the butthole, it is mild enteritis.
