Scabies is a disease that is easy to get when the water quality is not good and bacteria grow wildly. At first, you may see white bumps the size of soybeans on your neck or limbs, and if you squeeze them, there will be a smell and something white or yellow like tofu dregs coming out. If it is early**, the effect is still quite good, but if the situation is serious, the turtle may not eat, and the reaction will be slower, and it may hang up in about two to three weeks.

*In the first case, it is best to isolate the sick turtle, clean it with iodine, and then sprinkle or stuff it with some oxytetracycline powder, chlortetracycline or erythromycin and other antibiotics. If the symptoms are severe, you have to squeeze out the scabies and repeat the previous method. If the turtle is no longer eating, you have to find a way to get it to take oxytetracycline.

Turtles with scabies really need to be taken care of. **, be sure to keep the water clean and change the water frequently to reduce the growth of bacteria. Moreover, when administering medicine to them, you must follow the doctor's instructions, and don't use them indiscriminately. Also, even if the sick turtle starts to get better, you can't be careless, and you have to continue to observe its recovery to make sure it's completely **. In short, the key to dealing with scabies is to detect it early, and to be patient and careful.
