Timon Got Injured



When I checked my two turtles this morning, I found one of Timon's front paws was bleeding!!!  When I checked the other front paw, the nails were gone!!! The thought that she was bit by Pumbaa who might be very hungry last night jumped into my mind!!! And Timon has no appetite today at all!!! She is injured!!! So I transferred her from the contagious water to a clean container, and applied her some medical cream!!! 

See~~~ Turtle's blood is red!!!

One nail was gone from this paw!!!~~~



This paw is swelling!!!

 My neighbor who has 10+ years of raising turtles suggested that my two little turtles mated last night and Timon will lay eggs soon!!!!!! So exciting news!!!!!! She is still about 12 centimeter in diameter!!! 
She is not in good mood now. Because she hiss a lot when I hold her!!! Usually, she is relaxed and stretching her limbs on my palm.

The truth is she bit herself and bit so hard!!! Advice from online told me that it's because she is growing and her shell is shedding which causes her itching and which, in turn, makes her want to bite herself!!!!!! 
I'm shocked by her hard bites!!!

My Well-read Pumbaa




 This is the funny story I captured about Pumbaa one day on which he determined to be a well-read turtle!!! 

I think he was reading the newspaper, or trying to learn something!!!

"Let me see the right part~~~"

"Oooh, I don't get that!!! I will try the left part~~~"

"What about the lines up there~~~"

"Or there~~~"

"Ooooh, I just need some rest!!!!!!"

Then Pumbaa closed his eyes and fell in sleep!!!


This is how is Timon going recently. She has a round bigger and gained a lot of weight!!! I weight her on my palm!!! 
She just does her usual things like eat, crawl, sunbath on Pumbaa's back!!!
Sometimes, when she is bored, she will bite her own arm for fun!!!
