Vitamin A plays an important role in maintaining normal epithelial tissues and is vital for vision, growth, reproduction, and immune function; it is stored in the liver
Reptiles typically affected by this disease are carnivorous or omnivorous tortoises, such as box turtles and aquatic turtles.
Vitamin A deficiency occurs as a result of feeding turtles an inappropriate diet. Turtles that are fed iceberg lettuce, an all-meat diet, or a poor-quality commercial diet are most likely to develop issues.
Symptoms include a lack of appetite, lethargy, swelling of the eyelids (often with a pus-like discharge), swelling of the ear (due to the formation of an ear abscess), kidney failure, and respiratory infections. If it is needed to supplement your turtle’s diet with any type of vitamin, it’s probably going to be vitamin A.
Directions for use:- Administer via the Turtle Feed (egg food or fruit) Recommended quantities per turtle:- 1 drop per week for 50gm turtle. Dosages can be adjusted according to the condition of the pet.
