This video saved my turtles life on Tuesday. No joke. I actually posted a comment the other day that said this. But i deleted it b/c I didn’t wanna jinx anything until she was in the clear. But I’m glad Pancakes is okay & I’m beyond happy you posted this. So somehow one my logs in my Clemmys Guttata tub/pond got dislodged & she got trapped under it. When I found her she was seemingly gone. Eyes glazed over. Limp. No sign of life. I tipped her upside down w/ her head facing downward to get the water out, I couldn’t open her mouth b/c she’s so small.. but this helped & then I did some leg movements by pulling her legs in & out to get her lungs pumping & then I did mouth to mouth while I had her laying on my counter on her belly. After I’d give her air I would pump her front legs 5-8x & then her back legs 5-8x by pulling them in & out. Then more air. I did this for about 25 minutes & then she took a huge gasp of air & coughed out water. So I kept repeating the steps & her eyes started to clear up & she started to come back. After awhile she was reacting to me touching her back legs. But she was lethargic for about 16 hours. I decided to take her to the ER since she kept stretching out her neck which looked to me like she was struggling to breathe. Then she got horrible diarrhea & I could tell she was becoming dehydrated but it was too soon to put her back in the water. The ER prescribed her some antibiotic injections to give every 3 days for 2.5 weeks. They said you can’t see pneumonia & stuff right away on xray. So this was just precautionary. But now she’s doing really good. I’ve got her dry docked with a little Tupperware of 1.5 in water & she drank for like 45 minutes the first time I put her in it. Now she’s just lounging in the water & is acting normal. Idk if I would have saved her if it wasn’t for this video. When my dad died at the end of 2020 I inherited his 15 aquatic turtles, his 4 tortoises & 1 box turtle & now they’re basically my life. They’re my kids man. They’re the one thing I have that helps me feel close to my dad & Rhoda, the turtle I saved is my favorite of the bunch. He saved her life after she was run over by a golf cart.. so she’d already had a rough life. Losing her would have sent me down a very dark path. I’ve been trying to find her a male to mate with but I can’t seem to find a male that’s of breeding age anywhere. Hopefully one day soon I’ll be able to be because she’s such a special little turtle & I would love to carry on her genes. But yeah, I just wanted to post this all to thank you for posting this & to maybe help someone else who may not know that you can save a drowned turtle. These are remarkable little creatures & they’ve saved my life too. After losing my pops who was my best friend I had a hard time finding meaning in life.. but these turtles helped me to do that… so you don’t know how grateful I am for you & your channel! Thank you for posting this!
I’m so happy to hear Rhoda is doing better now my friend. I’m sorry to hear about your father but I’m so glad the critter is doing ok. You’re doing an incredible job taking care of them clearly! Keep it up. And thank you so much for this comment. It really means a lot
holy shit man, massive respect and appreciation for this vid. my sister's red eared slider ended up getting his claw stuck in the filter and was completely lifeless, but we managed to get him awake and aware from your vid and a few articles we found within a couple hours❤❤❤ from the bottom of my heart, thank you for the no-nonsense, straight to the point video. he's now stable, got a vet appointment in the morning and we're watching him till then😊
Oh man I got home and seen my little African side neck (snoop) on the bottom of the tank belly up. I scream I let out my neighbors knocked my door asked if everything was. I jumped into action and did this remembered watching this video and rn she is dry docking. Man I haven’t cried in a while but thinking that my turtle might have died oh no. Thank you so much Dan THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Thank you. May God continue to bless you
Was your turtle moving at all? In the video I see the turtle is moving. This morning I found my mud turtle belly up. Took him out of water immediately. His eyes were open but he did not move or react at all. I didn’t know this method. I dry docked him flat for an hour then took him to vet. They tried to listen to his heart beat with a device but they couldn’t hear any. So they told me that my sweet boy is dead… I am very heartbroken. I am now wondering if I did apply this method would it work even if the turtle didn’t have any heartbeat, or was it too late already?
Hopefully Pancake recovers quickly! Sending good prayers your way! Thank you for everything you have done for your viewers, turtles, and just being a good human on this earth. I wish everyone the best!
Dan a huge Thankyou for sharing this upsetting event , from viewing this I was today able to revive my drowned Razorback, the tipping them head down and pumping the legs was invaluable to bringing the little guy round , thanks again , keep up the great work 👍🏻👍🏻
Hello, thanks to this video I was able to save my African side neck turtle, Snorkel. I found him belly up and limp as a noodle at the bottom of his tank. I thought he was a goner when I pulled him out. He moved very slightly and I knew there was still hope, but no time to lose. Thanks to you, I was able to save him. I'm happy to report, two days later Snorkel is happily soaking in the bathtub eating some live super worms. Thank you so much for helping me save my baby. You are an angel.
I did a small intake bay for my pond with a pump vault to avoid direct contact--even without the intake bay, you could use a pump vault (quality product from aquascape, another company or a diy with a 5 gallon bucket and several large holes drilled) instead of a bag... as long as the water enters the vault faster than the pump can empty it. The basic principle is how the pump draws from the many openings lightly as opposed to the strong suction at a single opening. Best of luck with the recovery--love your videos.
This is great! I had a very similar situation with my pink belly sideneck, Pinks. I was also successful. I was an absolute wreck. It took about 24 hours for her to get back to acting normal. She was pinned by her head under my filter. The suction cups had come loose while she was underneath it. She had a horrible indention on her head. It was awful. But I am SO happy to say she has fully recovered! ☺️🐢💦
Reading this made me chest tight...so relieved Pinks is doing great. God I hope my Caspian Pond terrapin, Tilly, never goes through that. I honestly can’t even begin to imagine the panic and the fear you must’ve gone through. Lots of love to you and Pinks xxx
Omg thank you so much for your video! ❤ someone decided it was a good idea to put a plastic box in his tank. My turtle spash was under the box looking lifeless. I think he got trapped in there. At first when i picked him up his neck had no control. He flopped like a dead fish and he was completely limp. I did what you said and he came back to life. He still needs to recover some more but for no vets being opened right now .. your video was key to my turtles life. Ive had splash since i was 6 years old. Im 29 now.
So Dan rmemebr when i reached out to you with my turts!! well he drowned too and blowing in does work--its like CPR my advice that really worked when giving air---use a straw... so it covers the nose better----it fits like a mask and blow--not too hard but steady breaths--- and do cpr breaths every 10 seconds
Nooooo pancake...😭💔💔 he’s such a fighter tho, so glad he made it! But thanks for the video, i wouldn’t have known how to act if my Tilly ever drowned. Sending my best to all your turtles ❤️ going to miss the little babies and of course little pumpkin 🥺
This was such a sad video. 1st. Thank god pancake was moving! But then you showed pumpkin :( not gonna lie. I’m all teary eyed over here. I feel like pumpkin was part of my family. I love you Dan! Keep strong bud!
Thank you so much for this video, thank s to you I was able revive my rock slider tortoise who accidentally got her self stuck in a plant pot. She was totally gone when i pulled her out. But now doing very well...thanks again .
Thx you got my sub I followed the instructions and a lot of water come from her nose and she was ok after and I her back in the pond and later when I check on her got more water in her lung so I follow the instructions again but it was to late😢💔
I just had this crazy idea, I wonder if placing the turtle inside a bucket of raw rice would dry out its saturated lungs. Kinda like when you drop your phone in the water and before turning it on, you immediately place in rice overnight. But Dan's method worked. So relieved that your turtle is ok.
Thank you for this video, one of mine drowned tonight and was lifeless. I held him upside down and pumped his legs, I didn’t see any water come out but he is alive and slowly moving about. He’s dry downed on wet t towel under a heat lamp. I hope he survives the night.
Having the same problem now, came home from work and i see my turtle upside down in the green terror tank. Thought he was dead, even when i took him out of the tank, everything was just hanging weightlessly. Performing the cpr move on him now at the moment. slowly starting to being a bit responsive again
My painted turtle drown and thankfully we went outside that night to check on the turtles before we went to bed. When we found him at the bottom of tub looking dead. I put him up on the basking platform that I made for that tub. And I was getting ready to go dig a hole. I thought I seen him lift his head and I told my husband he's not dead he moved. So then I put him inside my house and dry docked him. He started moving around after a couple hours. It was his first winter outside so I don't know if that was part of the cause. I live in FL so we don't have normal winters. Anyway he is fine now still growing and a very happy boy.

I am so glad that pancake is gonna pull through!! While I know this has nothing to do with this exact video I need some help because I am dealing with an issue in my RES aquarium and wanted to see if you had any advise. I recently discovered I have freshwater copepods in my planted and my RES tank. I have been told it's nothing to be worried about yet all the turtle groups I follow on FB say I should still do an entire filter and tank cleaning on my RES tank even though it would cause a bacteria bloom they said it should handle getting rid of the copepods yet everything else I've read including the pet stores told me not to worry and that you can't get rid of all of them short of throwing everything out and starting all over. I am so stressed and confused and need help! Should I do a full cleaning or just not worry about it. It's 1 4.5 inch male in a 75 gallon. No fish or anything live besides Buddy (RES) in that tank and its a bare bottom. I already do monthly maintenance on my Fluval 407 and weekly 25% water changes. Please any advise would help ease my troubled and worried turtle mom mind! Thank you in advance.
I found my mud turtle belly up this morning. He was not stuck anywhere. He didn’t move at all. His eyes were open but no movement or reaction whatsoever. He was not swollen anywhere. I was not aware this method so I took him to the vet. They used a machine to catch a heart beat but there was none. Vet confirmed his dead. Now watching this video, I want to know would there be still a chance to revive even if there was no heart beat? 😢
My soft shell turtle drowned and got him to move a lot of times after I thought he died. But now he’s just laying there with eyes open. But if I touch its eye he closes and opens slowly
This dude rocks my baby turtle hkt stuck on the pump byethe time isawhim it was to olate. He was nolife li Ked himup totally dead iwatched the video and started pushing in at.s and legs for like a 1/2 hour before I had any movment at all 2 hrs later my turtle is alive. Fuck yes thanks
Aye, Dan, my baby girl, Josie, died and my heart is broken 💔. She was an Eastern Painted rescue. When we got her, she was the size of a quarter and she was with us for 10 years. I couldn't even look at her empty tank for a week. I know some think, "It's just a turtle". BULLS**T. My Josie and me were so close. I only started watching turtle videos now despite losing her months ago. But I decided to watch your videos today just to remind me what it was like to have her. But I can't bring myself to get another one. It will feel as if I'm trying to replace her and no one could replace my precious baby girl💔😭💔. Thank you so much for your videos
How long before pancake was back to normal? I just saved my 2 month old turtle. After a few hours he started moving again but now he seems to be very skittish. Haven't eaten anything all day.
My 6 month old common snapper drowned today. I used to leave a sock in his tub because I thought it comforted him. He ended up crawling inside and could not get out. When I get off work, I found him inside lifeless. He already had that death smell so I knew it was too late. Please do not put anything inside their enclosure that they could crawl inside and not get out. Rest In Peace Romeo. You were a great turtle and friend. I’ll miss you very much. PS. I want to get another one but do not know the next time they lay eggs. Romeo was a Florida common snapping turtle if that helps. Stay safe and love your turtles everyone.
Thanks for watching! New videos weekdays at 5pmEST!

How long did it take before she started eating again?
I'm glad pinks is ok, and that you shared how she got stuck, so others may avoid the same
Mine dident make it
Thank you pancake for volunteering as tribute 🥺
So relieved 😌 for Pancake. This is prob the best reptile channel on RUclips
Thank you!!!
You saved my Turtles life
So glad he made it! I've had a little one drown last autumn and it was horrible. Thanks for the useful advice on how to react!
Thanks!
Very very very thankful to you 😊. Just because of you I could save my turtle today.😊❤God Bless You❤
Great video. I used to use a straw placed on their nostrils for mouth to mouth. But you have to be very very gentle to not harm their lungs
He woke up thank you so much🙏🏽
“I tried to scream…but my head was underwater”
Thank you so much! Just 2 minutes ago this video help save my sisters baby turtle, he’s conscious rn and done with the situation

I lost one of my turtles today. I tried everything. Sadly Mikey didn't make it :'(
Glad pancake is ok. You're such a good turtle dad. Love this channel.
She’s recovering
I found my mud turtle belly up this morning. He was not stuck anywhere. He didn’t move at all. His eyes were open but no movement or reaction whatsoever. He was not swollen anywhere. I was not aware this method so I took him to the vet. They used a machine to catch a heart beat but there was none. Vet confirmed his dead. Now watching this video, I want to know would there be still a chance to revive even if there was no heart beat? 😢
how would you do this on a snapping turtle
If they have enough energy to snap and fight back, they likely don’t need the CPR
Ok great!
Great video Dan
Your video showed me what to do . Thank you so much 🙏 really appreciate it .
Where can you buy Baby Diamondback Terrapins?
You really love your turtles. They are lucky.
I swear bro if Pancake left us too...
Ikr...
Do you have any red eared sliders for sale
I want one!!!
me toooo
Get well soon little Pancake. Stay away from pumps. 🐢
My soft shell turtle drowned and got him to move a lot of times after I thought he died. But now he’s just laying there with eyes open. But if I touch its eye he closes and opens slowly
Whats up buddy do you have any baby terrapins available?
How are they suppose to breathe if they’re in a taped down box?
Dude, you just saved my trutle. Thank you so so much ❤🥹
Glad I could help!
I'm confused! Was this footage from the same time we lost coco, or was there a new separate situation with him today??? 😥😥😥
This dude rocks my baby turtle hkt stuck on the pump byethe time isawhim it was to olate. He was nolife li Ked himup totally dead iwatched the video and started pushing in at.s and legs for like a 1/2 hour before I had any movment at all 2 hrs later my turtle is alive. Fuck yes thanks
Is there a website that you have where I could buy a turtle
Can you face the pump opening downward?
Aye, Dan, my baby girl, Josie, died and my heart is broken 💔. She was an Eastern Painted rescue. When we got her, she was the size of a quarter and she was with us for 10 years. I couldn't even look at her empty tank for a week. I know some think, "It's just a turtle". BULLS**T. My Josie and me were so close. I only started watching turtle videos now despite losing her months ago. But I decided to watch your videos today just to remind me what it was like to have her. But I can't bring myself to get another one. It will feel as if I'm trying to replace her and no one could replace my precious baby girl💔😭💔. Thank you so much for your videos
do you have to pay to get one of the hatchlings
How much for a baby to send to texas
How is pancake at this moment?
Thank you so much becaus eI tried it on my turtle and he is going well
How long before pancake was back to normal? I just saved my 2 month old turtle. After a few hours he started moving again but now he seems to be very skittish. Haven't eaten anything all day.
It took 2 months of keeping him dry and warm
Oh that pancake always getting himself into trouble 😔
What kind of turtle is this?
My turtle has been dead for 3 days can I still revive it
how can I contact you to buy turtles?
So did he live???
Arent these turtles meant to be in water, arent they meant to have more water than land? How do they drown
How can I purchase a terrapin from you Dan.
None available rn sadly!
I love how you didnt waste no time for the ppl who really really need to know how to
Not sure when the video was done, but how is he doing?
He’s excellent now!!!! I show him frequently on my shorts! You’ll see him with the other critters begging for food
Do you sell turtles?
Love your content❤️
Wouldn't it be prudent to take him to a vet for preventative care for any pneumonia or URI? (I'm genuinely asking, not criticizing.)
Glad I came across this,you just don't think that a turtle can drown.
Yo please keep us updated
holy shit ive literally never thought about pet turtles drowning before
Awhhhh pumpkinnnnnnnn
Shelby didnt make it ):
My turtle drowned and didnt make it
Aww man I should’ve checked this earlier….
My baby amboina box turtle died a month after this video, it died because it drowned.
😢 same we buried my baby as vet announced him dead, so didn't try all this.
My 6 month old common snapper drowned today. I used to leave a sock in his tub because I thought it comforted him. He ended up crawling inside and could not get out. When I get off work, I found him inside lifeless. He already had that death smell so I knew it was too late. Please do not put anything inside their enclosure that they could crawl inside and not get out. Rest In Peace Romeo. You were a great turtle and friend. I’ll miss you very much.
PS. I want to get another one but do not know the next time they lay eggs. Romeo was a Florida common snapping turtle if that helps. Stay safe and love your turtles everyone.
I put my pumps in plastic boxed with holes. Looks ugly but turtles are safe
Hey turtle nerds did pancake pull thru
