First of all, eating with your mouth open is a problem. The first choice is to feed the shrimp, shrimp ass. Most turtles eat it. I suggest you don't feed that inch of gold and junk turtle food. I suggest you buy some lifeline turtle food. It's good for young turtles with lifelines to open their mouths. This is not an advertisement. All my turtles are eating this turtle food. Try to feed them alive when you can. Sunbathing is a good way to accelerate the material consumption of soft-shelled turtle. When it is hungry, it may start eating, but remember, just sunbathe for ten minutes every day. Don't die in such a big sun.
Secondly, the problem of water. Crocodiles are not picky about water quality. There is no need to sunbathe in the water. Alligator's swimming ability is not strong. But he can stick his head out for a long time to breathe. This is something other turtles don't have. But for seedlings, water 65438+ is 0.5 times higher than carapace. In addition, it is best to put a smooth stone in the tank so that it has a stable place to climb up and catch its breath.
About not eating, changing inches of gold. Live food or high-grade turtle food. Finally, pay attention to the temperature and be sure not to put an air-conditioned room. If you have any questions, please tell me and I will help you answer them.
