Appx. 8", adult. Just did a complete tank cleaning.
It's not eating like it should (Pellets). Stools are normal size and consistancy, color. Kept in 60 gal.
aquarium with submers. filter. Using a full spectrum light over basking area. Could it be an infection or am I keeping the water too cool? It's still active and quick, not lethargic. Please help!

im not talking about aquatic turtles im on about the ones with claws that walk around on land. he is a hermans tortoise.he has been having trouble opening his eyes in the morning so i gently rub them with damp warm cotton wool and i noticed that he has something that looks like a white casing near the corner of his eyes but its halfway up his eyes.and he squeeks really loud when he rubs his eyes and today he refused to eat. i keep telling my parents that i need to take him to a vet but they refuse to belive he has something wrong with him. and also if you cant hibernate a tortoise because of sertain medical reasons like nemonia how do you keep them awake?he is about 2 years old.

I need to find out how to breed rats. I am posting in the reptlie section cause everytime I ask in the rodent section they call me a murder for wanting to feed my snakes or they tell me to just buy them rather then tell me how to breed them. Our pet store that I use to buy my rats from closed down due to lack of business and the closest store is more then 2 hours away. Other then being a big waste of time and a lot of money on gas and during the winter it is almost impossible so it's not worth driving up there unless I have to. I need to learn how to breed rats other wise I will have to get rid of a few of my snakes and I really don't want to do that. Can someone please tell me how to breed rats.

We are new corn snake owners and have had an extremely difficult time thus far. First our snake would not eat, we had finally gotten her to eat twice then she once again has refused to eat her last two meals. She is not moving around in her terranium at night like she was before. We are having an a diffcult time getting the cool side of the tank to the correct temperature it keeps dropping into the high 60's. Has she gone into a hibernation state? How do you keep the cool side warm but not too warm I know it's supposed to be 70-75 on the cool side but I can't seem to keep in that range. I have placed a blanket over her terranium which has helped bring up the temp. a couple degrees. What do we do, she needs to eat!

I have red-eared slider who has been very inactive all winter. He doesn't eat hardly anything at all and sleeps constantly. He moves just enough to let us know that he is still alive, but has been sleeping next to his heater for the past week. Is this just normal behavior for a turtle this time of year... does he think that he needs to hybernate? Or is there something else wrong with my turtle that I should be concerned about?

aren't they illegal?
whyyyyyyy are they still being sold to people who have no idea how to properly care for them??

It makes me sad. Is it because the authorities don't give a crap about the 4 inch law? or did it change or something??
