Like any surgical procedure, a gastrojejunostomy could result in infection or another complication. A gastrojejunostomy connects the stomach to the jejunum, bypassing the duodenum, the beginning of the intestine at the bottom of this image.
One more thing: Don't make your turtle's water temperature too warm. For most adult aquatic turtle species, 78 F. (25.5 C.) is the highest you want unless you're treating them for an illness and a veterinarian has told you to raise the temperature. Otherwise, too-warm water can encourage bacteria growth in the tank. It also discourages turtles from basking sometimes.
It is important to understand that this is a cold climate turtle. In the wild it is active and feeding in water at 12 C. Eastern Long-necked Turtles are often sold when very small, about 3cm shell length, however, this species will grow to a shell length of 20 - 30cm.As the turtle grows, depending on the size of aquarium you have, it may need a bigger home.Turtles in general are long term pets. They can easily live for 100 years or more so this is a pet you may have to leave to your grandchildren.ousing Outside: When the turtle is 3 years old it is better for it to live outside. Remember that turtles can walk quite a distance in a short time. You will need an area fenced with material other than wire for your turtle-the turtle can damage its snout by pushing at the wire.
