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!!!
Good luck with your turtle!
