My turtle doesn't eat!

There are several reasons why the newly bought Brazilian tortoise doesn't eat. First, turtles lose their appetite due to incorrect feeding methods during transportation and storage. In this case, turtles usually provide a comfortable living environment after buying it back, and they can adapt to it after a period of time. Secondly, because the artificially bred turtles live in groups, they don't want to eat when they buy them home because of loneliness and environmental changes, which requires an adaptation process.

Moreover, even if it doesn't eat for months, it won't starve to death. If it is hungry, it will eat naturally. My little turtle always plays tricks on it. Sometimes it doesn't eat for days, and sometimes it eats a lot every day. Besides, it's not the peak of turtle's appetite, because the temperature is not enough, it will get better around mid-April. The best feeding growth period of soft-shelled turtle should be the Grain Rain to autumnal equinox in the 24 solar terms every year, so don't worry too much.

If you are sure that you are not sick, you can feed some live fish or shrimp properly, let him eat while playing, and improve his interest. Maybe he can't help it!
