If your turtle won't eat, there are a few things you can try:

  1. Check the temperature of the tank to ensure it is suitable for your turtle.
  2. Offer a variety of foods such as live or frozen insects, leafy greens, commercial turtle pellets, or fruits.
  3. Make sure the food is fresh and not spoiled.
  4. Consider trying to hand-feed the turtle to encourage eating.
  5. If your turtle continues to refuse food, it's best to consult a veterinarian who specializes in reptiles for further advice and examination.
