Food causes crocodile turtles not to eat.

Crocodile turtles are carnivores and eat rotten food. They eat a wide range of food, such as small fish, crayfish, all kinds of shellfish and all kinds of fruits and vegetables. Individuals in the wild also prey on snakes and birds. In Michigan, baby turtles even eat plants, usually only in the absence of food or in summer, and become omnivorous when they mature.

The disease causes crocodile turtles not to eat.

Crocodile turtles are generally less sick, but are prone to indigestion under high-density breeding conditions. Diseased turtles can be fed with bait containing multi-enzyme tablets (2 tablets per kilogram of turtles). Traumatic diseases can be disinfected with iodine tincture cotton and cured 2 ~ 4 days after applying Xiaoyan Shengji ointment.

Environmental problems cause crocodile turtles not to eat

Newly bought crocodile turtles will not eat or eat less because they are not familiar with the environment and do not adapt to the environment, so they may prefer to look for food in dark and quiet places. At this point, it is best to give the crocodile tortoise a long process of adaptation, leaving it in a dark and quiet place for 1-2 days (or more), so that it can slowly adapt to the environment, and then it will eat normally.
