With the current upsurge of keeping pets, all kinds of small pets are common. People are interested in raising pets one after another. Tortoise is no exception. It has also become one of the favorite pets in people’s hearts. Peeling has become a common phenomenon of raising tortoises in our daily life. So why does tortoise peel? Let’s take a look at the peeling phenomenon of turtles.
First of all, there are two cases of tortoise peeling. One is the peeling phenomenon due to normal physiological cycle, and the other is their abnormal peeling phenomenon, such as their infection with some skin diseases, and so on.
Normal peeling is a normal phenomenon caused by the growth of its own body. This phenomenon also shows that the tortoise is growing, which is also a physiological metabolism. It refers to that its old skin gradually recedes and new tissues begin to grow. Our naked eyes can clearly see that some are white, transparent and have greasy skin, or are floating around the body in a roll shape.
Note: don’t tear them off with your hands at this time. In this case, it is easy to damage the new flesh tissue.
The other is some common pathological phenomena, peeling caused by various diseases caused by illness, such as skin diseases, rotten skin and so on. Peeling in this case is an abnormal pathological phenomenon.
Rotten skin is a common phenomenon. When this phenomenon occurs, there will be layers of yellow skin, which looks a bit like inflammatory symptoms. Some even have a little blood color, showing rotten epidermis. The epidermis does not have a complete shape. This situation will occur. We need to deal with it in time and get some corresponding potions, Put it in the small box where they often live and soak it for an hour or two every day for a week or two. Of course, there are serious situations that can endanger their lives, and we need to take good care of them in our daily life.
In order to avoid a series of abnormal peeling phenomena, we should try our best to keep their living environment clean and tidy, create a sterile environment and avoid being infringed by bacteria.
We need to change their water regularly; Feed them regularly. At the same time, pay attention not to leave some food residues in the water, but also give them sufficient light during their growth to promote their calcium absorption and nutrient absorption. Conducive to the healthy growth of turtles.
On the one hand, it is the imagination of why the tortoise peels. I also hope that we can distinguish the phenomenon of peeling in our daily life and apply the right medicine to the case, which is more conducive to the care of the tortoise’s daily life.
