I was feeding my turtle bowser when i saw he couldn't open his mouth all the way. This was the first time i fed him in a week (he was really stressed out) I think it is because i dropped him about a month ago. What can i do?

Did he eat when you attempted to feed him? How often do you feed your turtle? How big is your turtle? What is your turtles diet like? What is your turtles habitat like?

I'm sorry for your loss. Do you have any other turtles?
