Hi, is it safe for red eared sliders to eat calcium blocks?
I have a small turtle, it always feared & hidden. I want some vitamins & diatry system for it. How can i calculate its age
My red eared slider turtle has began to develop white chalky spots on his shell. Can you please help?
How much pellets and green leaf lettuce should I feed my red eared slider with pyramiding and a soft shell?How often?Once a day? Once two days?Also if I was to get a ceramic dome for heat what kind of bulb should I buy?
I have had this turtle for 3.5 years. He doesn't seem to be growing. He is in a 10 gallon tank. Is this to small and does his underneath side look healty?
How much Fenbendazole would you give to a box turtle that weighs about to or less than 3 lbs? Where can you get it and what should I buy
I have a turtle I got as a hatchling whose shell has started to curve. I’ve read this could be due to too much protein, too weak of uv/uvb lights, or a combination that makes him grow too fast for the shell to keep up. I’m going to the pet supply store to get a new bulb tomorrow and he eats feeder fish as well as a variety (gold fish food he steals, dry meal worms, pellets from two different brands) of dry foods. How can I help him better?
I got this turtle from this lady they didn’t know nothing about turtles and I think it’s a fungal infection it’s all white and the nutrition was very bad they only gave him one pellet a day he’s a year old and It’s very small what can I do for it’s shell I feel so bad they kept him in a very small plastic box like barely enough water I have another turtle they are not in the same tank I’m trying to help this poor turtle I’m worried he’s very active hes very skinny his is soft almost wet like
Are mineral deposits harmful to a turtle
I have a male eastern painted turtle. for the last couple of months he has had white stuff on his shell. I thought it was shell rot and scrubbed and treated with iodine daily and nothing happened. I thought it was a calcium deficiency so I added cuttlebone to the water and his shell has just gotten worse. I have seen him take bites from the calcium so I know if it was going to work it would have. I'm stumped on what else it could be. Please let me know! I do have a heat and UVB light in there.
My red eared slider turtle is hiding constantly staying under the rock and filter and he’s not sunbathing I’ve had him for 2&1/2 years and he hasn’t grown a whole lot, I’ve only been feeding him 3-4 “floating reptile sticks” every day since then. I’m worried about the little guy should I be feeding him more or something else also I don’t know if his tank is ideal for his species I’ve never met anyone else with a turtle and I haven’t had anyone to get advice from.

I have a red eared slider who is 1 and a half year old. The commercial pellet box suggests that I feed my turtle twice as much as she can eat. Should I follow this, however even if I give 20 pellets at a time, my turtle eats it.
