CATDOLL : CATDOLL: There are white spots on my snapping turtle, is it shell rot?

1. There are white spots on my alligator snapping turtle. Is it shell rot?

Dry-raise the turtle for a week, soaking it in water 2-3 times a day. Turtles that have not been raised regularly are prone to this situation because they are not adapted to the water quality. Leave the new water for 2-3 days before using it for breeding. Apply some povidone-iodine paste and let it get more sun.

Control water quality

2. The little alligator turtle has a white spot and is not in good spirits. How can I treat it?

Friends who have rotten skin, make sure to ensure the water quality. No need to use medicine for the time being

3. There is a small white spot on the back of the alligator turtle. Does it mean it is sick?

Apply some anti-inflammatory medicine on it, wait for it to dry, then put the turtle back into the water. Apply it a few times to see if it gets better. If it doesn't work, it's best to see a doctor.

4. White things grow on the alligator turtle

Which part is it? I think it might be rotten skin or rotten nail~~

You can put some iodine on it and see how it goes.

5. What should I do if white spots appear on the mouth and body of the alligator turtle?

Hello, the original poster, don't worry, try using oxytetracycline, once a day, 30 minutes each time, it should recover in a week. Later on, feed it regularly and quantitatively, maintain good water quality, and try to maintain a constant temperature. This way, the turtle will basically not get sick. Even if it has some minor illnesses, it will recover quickly on its own. Finally, I wish your turtle will get better and better.
