The feeding temperature should be kept at a constant temperature of 25 degrees as far as possible. In addition to the warm light bulb, a heating pad for cats and dogs can be added under the substrate. Although they can tolerate the low temperature below 15 degrees, it is better to keep warm, and UVA and UVB are better used at the same time. Because the Abelarda elephant turtle grows faster in its larval stage, it can grow more than 10 centimeters a year, and its adult body is also very huge, so it is better to have a large enough environment to raise it.
The substrate can be sawdust or tree chips, and even grass is also a good choice. Keep it clean at all times and clean the environment frequently. It is best to have a place to rest and hide in the feeding box, and then put a basin for drinking and soaking. Check the turtle's activities, eating and feces every day, and keep a diary. Unhealthy turtles should be separated in time and kept in isolation.
