my res ate like 15 rocks when i put him in a new tank and they are the same rockes he has had in his old one he never ate them before will he be okay

Take all the rocks out asap if you haven't already. Keep an eye on him after that. With any luck, he'll pass them and you'll be picking rocks out of there every day. If he doesn't start passing them, get him to a vet.

Just curious, did you sit there and watch him eat 15 rocks?

yes but i was trying to get the rock out as fast as i can and fed him and just continued toeat the rock he to fast in this big tank im so scared for him i dont want him to die thanks

are the rocks out of there now? If he doesnt start passing them in a couple of days you'll need to get him to a vet. Good luck.

i was scooping them out as soon as i saw him eat them and they are out i have not seen any yet though that was like at 11 last night i hope he will be ok
i wonder what made hime eat them he never ate them before i had moved him in a larger tank and put the same rock from his old with him

turtles are very opportunistic eaters. They will eat whatever they can choke down. Mine recently started chewing on the black rubbery sealant stuff in his tank.

They also ate a few large chunks off their corkbark basking spot but thankfully they passed.

mine ate a bite out of his basking dock 2 i dont know if he was stressed or what but he went in a craze then eventally he comed and ate a few crickets poor guy

if he has eaten large rocks, you should get an x-ray taken to make sure they all pass.

it was small fish rock like the size of the the little pellet food but im looking for a vet close buy so i can take him to be safe

he pooped his first rock this morning i hope the rest come out

that's a really good sign! Make sure you take them out as soon as you see them because he'll eat them again.

his brother stinky was trying to eat it and i got it be fore he did

If a turtle eats rocks, it's thought that he may be lacking calcium in the diet and trying to compensate for it. Get him some cuttlebone if he doesn't have any (it's in the bird section), take off the hard backing, break it into pieces and leave several floating in the tank. If/when he starts nibbling on them, replace them as they're eaten.

thank i will do that

I hope the rest come out soon.
