If your turtle's shell becomes soft, it may be a sign that it may be going through the stages of a serious illness or may be caused by prolonged sitting, cold, or other issues plaguing it. Here are some possible ways to deal with it:


1. Enhance dietary nutrition: Adjust the diet appropriately to ensure that the Brazilian turtle receives enough nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals to help improve its immunity and accelerate healing.


2. Provide a complete habitat and feeding environment for the Brazilian turtle: The Brazilian turtle needs a warm, dry, spacious, clean and safe environment so that it can recover to health. Properly control temperature and ensure appropriate humidity to prevent dehydration from occurring.


3. Take it to the veterinarian: If the disease of the Brazilian turtle's shell is serious and abnormal, we recommend taking it to the veterinarian immediately for professional treatment to diagnose whether there is a disease, and if so, then treat it under the instructions of the veterinarian.


All in all, when your turtle's shell softens, it may need additional care and treatment. Precautions should be taken and a veterinarian should be consulted as soon as possible for the best treatment advice, care and maintenance of your turtle's health, and maintenance of recovery.
