1. What kind of turtle did you buy?
turtles can be divided into water turtles and turtles : turtles refer to turtles who are good at swimming and live in water for a long time. They have webbed toes, are small in size, and generally have flat bodies; turtles, as the name suggests, are some turtles that live on mountains or in deserts. Tortoises have to support their heavy bodies, so their feet are very thick and there are no webbed between their toes. Most of them are not good at swimming. Tortoise The tortoise shell is mostly semicircular and has thick scales to prevent moisture from spreading.
Most of the turtles we see at roadside stalls are Brazilian turtles. Brazilian turtle is also known as the colorful tortoise, red-eared turtle , Xiuli Jin turtle, Brazilian turtle, Mississippi Brazilian turtle, etc. It is a widely-fed reptile .
red-eared glans have typical red stripes on both sides of the head, but it is worth noting that some turtles' ears are not red, but yellow. These are variants of the red-eared turtle, scientifically called "yellow-eared turtle", but are generally collectively called Brazilian turtle.
2. Where to raise turtles?
The common Brazilian turtles are water turtles and can live in deep water, but young turtles like to live in shallow water. The Brazilian turtles' diet and urination and defecation are basically carried out in water. The water level for young Brazilian turtles below
5CM is the height of a turtle. If the water level is very deep, you can place stones and other materials to make a "land island" above the water surface so that the turtle can go up and rest and breathe. Brazilian turtles prefer sunlight. The turtle tank should be placed in a place with sufficient sunshine to ensure that it can receive at least two hours of light every day.
3. How often do I change the water?
Many people keep turtles in small containers. Due to the small living space, the feces and food residues in the water are prone to breed bacteria and mold, which is not conducive to the growth of turtles. It is also prone to infect the skin, nails, eye clearness and other parts, and even infection of internal organs.
Therefore, change the water regularly and scrub the mucus on the inner wall of the container. Adjust the water change frequency according to the water quality, and a small container can replace one-third of the water every day.
It is best not to change tap water directly, because it contains irritating disinfectants and can be left for two or three days before use.
4. What does a turtle eat?
Brazilian turtles were carnivorous animals in childhood and liked to eat mealworms , red nematodes, small fish and shrimps, etc.; after adulthood, they like to eat vegetarian food such as leaves, fruits, etc. Tortoises like to eat vegetables and fruits, and can be fed cabbage, carrots, apples, peaches, etc.
The optimal feeding temperature for turtles is 20° to 32°. At this time, the turtle has strong mobility and can be fed 3-4 times a week. If you feed every day, your weight will increase rapidly and you can grow 100 grams a year. The feeding time should be fixed. Generally, it is 10 to 14 o'clock in spring and autumn, and it is appropriate to be 7 to 9 o'clock or 18 to 19 o'clock in summer.
If a turtle doesn’t eat, first check if the temperature is too low. When the temperature is below 15°, the turtle no longer eats and prepares to hibernate. The general hibernation time is from November to March of the following year.
