Turtle is less active and has diarrhea

Turtle diarrhea has many causes, including unclean food, poor water quality, and sudden temperature changes. If the turtle ate unclean food, you need not rush to medicate; withhold food for a few days while keeping the water temperature stable and suitable.

If diarrhea does not improve, dissolve a little oxytetracycline or berberine in water and syringe-feed the sick turtle for 3 to 4 days using a tip-less syringe. Stop the medication once symptoms improve.
