CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY SOFTSHELL?

dkblonde Sep 06, 2004 02:32 PM

Hello everyone! I have a Florida softshell who is about 6 years old and who has been very healthy. Up until about a few weeks ago, my turtle ate very well, basked during the sunlight hours and at night time, he usually buried himself in the sand at the bottom of his pond. Now he doesn't show any interest in eating and whenever I see him swimming, he on swimming side-ways. Does anyone know what might be the cause of this behavior? Thank you!

How is your turtle now? I am having a similar problem. My softshell is about 15 years old.
