What to do if the turtle is full?

Remedies for overeating a turtle:
1. Fasting of food and water. Stop feeding and let the turtle slowly digest the food in its belly, but do not cut off water.
2. Exercise and bask in the sun. Increasing the turtle's activity level can also promote gastrointestinal motility and promote food excretion. Basking in the sun can promote their intestinal absorption, and the food in their stomachs can be digested faster.
3. Take a bath. Taking a bath at a water temperature of 30°C or 31°C can speed up the digestion and excretion of food, thereby reducing the discomfort of the turtle.
4. Take medicine. For mild gastrointestinal food accumulation and slowed gastrointestinal motility, it is recommended to use gastrointestinal motility drugs to promote gastrointestinal motility.
5. Gastric lavage. When a turtle cannot digest due to eating too much, gastric lavage is recommended. If symptoms such as hunger strike are present, rehydration should be given subcutaneously.
