Hello everyone
My Baby Yellow belly slider did hurt himself on his tail or legg I think.
Mayby it is a disease. He often pulls his tail and leggs in his shell and it is clearly that it hurts him. I did some research but none of the diseases matches with my problem. I looked verry well at his back but I didnt see anything that is not normal. This morning he even didnt wanted to eat. He lives with a bigger turtle but I dont think he bit him or attacked him. I Always look when I feed them until they are finished. I learned them not to take the food from the other turtle.
If You guys cant help me I am taking him to a vet.

Greetings Brent_Vdw

Hi Brent:

My thought is that the bigger turtle has bitten the smaller one's leg and tail. See if you can find a raw spot or an injury. If so, you need to separate them.
