Hi I’m a brand new turtle owner and we’ve had our baby albino RES for
2 months now. He’s having trouble eating his food.. he only eats the baby turtle pellets and usually misses when he goes to
bite them. I’ve put him in a small bin to feed to see if that helps at all and he just swims
past the food. Not sure if there’s anything else I can try?
Then in the last few days we noticed
he has dark green stuff ( looks like algae) showing in the crevices of his shell. We tried using a brush to gently scrub it off
and it’s not coming off. Is this a common issue with albinos? We’re at a loss here.
