1. Reason: It is possible that the shells of small tortoises are white because they are in the stage of molting, because when they molt, the edges of the shields will turn white first and then fall off.
2, Solution: This condition belongs to the stage of their normal growth and development, and the breeder does not need deliberate treatment. As long as the water quality is clean and the food is sufficient when they shed their shells.
2. Brush off1. Reason: The white shells of small Brazilian tortoises may also be due to the alkaline water quality. When the water quality is alkaline, a layer of white will appear on their carapace.
2. Solution: The breeder needs to brush off the alkali on the surface of the carapace with a soft brush, and then replace the feeding water. Usually, attention should be paid to adjusting water quality, so as not to make them alkaline.
3. Change containers1. Reason: The whitening of the shells of small Brazilian tortoises may also be due to the light color of the containers raised. If they are raised in white or beige containers, their colors will turn white.
2, Solution: The breeder can try to change the container, and can change the color of the container to dark green or black. In this way, their body color will change with the change of surrounding environment.
4. Change water in time1. Reason: The whitening on the shell of the small Brazilian tortoise may also be caused by rotten nail disease, and the main cause of this disease is poor water quality or bacterial infection.
2. Solution: Breeders need to change water in time to ensure clean water quality. Then smear anti-inflammatory drugs on the wound and try to choose dry cultivation.
