My turtle won't open its eyes...help?

Aaah! I dont know what to do..my turtle wont open his eyes....!!!!!?

  • Since yesterday he has been like this,his eyes look a little bigger like the outside and some white stuff was coming out kinda not alot just alittle..and I took him out of the water ...show more

  • Answer:

    Do what Peek says.Make sure the turtle is warm enough and has a dry place to bask. Get the reptile eye drops and one of those Dr.Turtle plaster turtles to put in the water - they are medicated.The turtle really needs to see a vet,but if you have no way to get to one,home remedies and dietary adjustments will have to do.Good luck.

go to Petco or Petsmart and get some eye drops. **Swollen cloudy eyes which means lacking in Vitamin A. Which we all need for good eyes. Google ‘vegetables with Vitamin A..and start feeding it to them. They do eat a variety of foods such as garden worms which I collect after a good rain and dump them un the pond, also meal worms, snails, crickets, flies, crayfish small frogs, slugs, tadpoles ,dragon flies and anything that moves, but only as a treat. They need leafy greens Romaine, Butter lettuce. (Iceberg and cabbage are bad for them, any other leafy greens will do) for vitamin A that they need at least 4 to 5 times a week. They love grapes and strawberries and squash , apples. For small turtles cut in small bite size pieces. In the winter all this fruits and veggies slow down to a couple times a week. TOSS in a bird cuttle bone in the water for calcium that will promote better shell growth, it will dissolve real slow and if they eat it that’s fine!! *****Contact rescues sites…and vets Red-Eared Slider: http://www.anapsid.org/reslider.html I am no expert, just been blessed with 2 healthy red eared sliders girls for 36 yrs. plus 3 adopted males 8, 5 and a 2 yr old. yr adopted from this site http://www.flickr.com/photos/29035692@N03/sets/72157612404391927/
