Dear all,
My box turtle just came out of hibernation one week ago. I gave her a water bath every other day, however, she seems very inactive without any appetite. I tried papaya, cucumber and earthworm, which she used to eat, but she showed no interest at all, She had her eyes shut/swollen most of the time and I found some sticky white things around her eyes. She seems even more lethargic compared to when she just waked up last week. This was her third hibernation (indoor) at my house, and she became fully active and started to eat within two days after last two hibernation. What can I do to help her? Any suggestions are appreciated!
