my terappin over 10 yrs old liao...eat almost everything. CNY period give it eat prawns...crawls all over the house but it will always go back to under the sink one.
note dat when they grow big u can't keep them in tanks anymore...so u got to find a dark corner for them to rest -
the only solution is to smash it on the ground!Originally posted by lim bei gong:how ar?? been a week liao and the terrapin food i gave it , it nv eat. the other 2 always eat. how ar? anyone can help? -

yeah this is true.Originally posted by Itachi:it trying to suicide by starving itself.. -
Did u wash it under running tap? Most probably due to some infection or if worst case, due to severe drowning. I dun think it can last till next weekend if doesnt want to eat. My terrepin also like tat.

the last time my terrapin died.....i wrapped it up in a tissue.... then throw it down the rubbish chute....

if u think its worth it...bring to a vet...let it examine...most likely the vet will give it some liquid form of nutritients...den u observe how it is...Originally posted by lim bei gong:how ar?? been a week liao and the terrapin food i gave it , it nv eat. the other 2 always eat. how ar? anyone can help?
how does the eyes look like?is it clear and has "spirit" ?the eyes of a turtle tells a million story...if its sick...you can see it through the eyes...
maybe the turtle don't like to be cramp together with other turtles...maybe u can give it extra attention for the time being... -
well why not...we are still paying them money to cure my pet...if they refuse to treat...den write letter to complain and go other places lor...i am sure there are places who treat smaller animals...Originally posted by d3sT1nY:Bring it to vet got use one arh..?

i got 2 terrapins at home. those brown shell types.. not the green ones with patterns on the shell.
i feed them live fishes about 4 days/week, else, its blood worms. also, i seperate them, ie, seperate tanks
usually, when a pet isnt eating, gota isolate them, in a tank, alone, in clean water etc...
maybe the terappin gonna mati liao also..
btw, can it retract back its head into the shell? -
