Brazilian tortoise is an omnivorous turtle. When raised, aquatic animals or poultry meat are generally used as food, supplemented by vegetables and turtle feed. If the Brazilian tortoise needs more energy in infancy, it is usually fed once a day. If you grow up, you can feed it once every 3-4 days. Excessive feeding will pollute the water quality. Brazilian tortoises are easy to raise, and generally they can be raised as long as the appropriate temperature and water level are provided.
Matters needing attention in breeding Brazilian tortoise
Although the Brazilian tortoise is an omnivore, it is a veritable carnivore under artificial feeding conditions. Soft minced meat, shrimp meat and boneless and spineless fish are the favorite foods of Brazilian turtles, especially fresh shrimp meat, but foods like fat meat, hard dried meat, cooked meat and various crude fibers are the most annoying.
However, when artificially raised, the internal organs of poultry, pigs and other animals, as well as maggots and breadworms can be the main ones. Properly mix fruits, vegetables and mixed feed to enhance nutrition in the body. Vitamin E powder and antibiotics are added in spring and autumn to increase the amount of eggs conceived by turtles and enhance their physique. Daily feeding should be regular, fixed and qualitative.
