1. Turtle breeding environment
Turtles are one of the common pet animals, but breeding turtles requires attention to environmental regulation. The breeding box must be made of appropriate materials. Turtles can be raised in glass or plastic breeding boxes. The size of the box should also be determined according to the size of the turtle. Some decorations should be placed in the box to increase the fun of the turtle, such as cement stands for running water, stones, branches, pebbles, etc. When placed in the water, you can also add happy toys such as happy candies in the water. This way the turtle will feel comfortable and safe. The breeding location and temperature are kept above 15°C to ensure the normal growth and health of the turtles.
2. Turtle’s diet
Turtles are omnivores and eat grass, duckweed, small fish, shrimp, protein, mouse meat, etc. Turtles love to eat vegetables, such as radishes, lettuce, pumpkin, spinach, lettuce, celery, etc. Appropriate addition of some high-quality animal protein, such as shrimp, crucian carp, rice worms, etc., is beneficial to the growth and development of turtles. At the same time, supplementing some vitamins and minerals will also be of great benefit to the turtle's body. You should also pay attention to the water you give your turtle to drink. The water should be clean and you can use a filter device to purify it.
3. Turtle health care
Breeding turtles requires regular cleaning and care, and diseases often occur, such as oral ulcers, turtle foot, ophthalmia, edema, etc. Understanding the characteristics of tortoise diseases and appropriate treatments can help your tortoise stay in good health. Especially observe its feces, because the feces can reflect the physical condition of the turtle. If any abnormality occurs, you need to go to the hospital for treatment in time. In addition, pay attention to the space needs of the turtle when it grows up, change the water regularly, and give enough sunlight and oxygen.
4. Daily activities and training of tortoises
Turtles need to be active, otherwise it will lead to lack of exercise and obesity, so they often need appropriate exercise. You can add some swimming pools to the box and let them swim freely. In addition, you can also conduct some small training, such as marching on command, chasing balls, recognizing people, etc., which can enhance the tortoise's intelligence and agility.
