QuestionI received a baby yellow spotted turtle and wondered what kind of lighting I need for it. It is about a month and a half old. She also has a white substance on part of her shell and top of her neck. Do you know what this is or how to treat it. She has a calcium block and also a rock to bask on. She is not in an aquarium just a large size bowl with a lamp and a 60 watt bulb. I would appreciate your help. Thank you
AnswerShe needs a larger tank
a Repti-Sun 10.0 UVB bulb and a basking light to regulate temperatures. They both need to be on 12 hours a day.
I am not sure as to what the white area on her is and that is best looked at by a veterinarian. I do not have medical experience.
Good luck
