Can you feed green shrimp to turtles, and can you feed turtles dried shrimp skin?

Hello landlord.

It is possible to feed the turtles.

But to preprocess.

First of all, remove the head and tail, because there are thorns.

Secondly, remove the shell that is too hard, and you can leave a little soft shell.

The main thing is to eat the meat of the tail.

If you don't understand, you can continue to ask.

OK! But not too big, it's better to make small pieces.

It's okay for turtles to feed dried shrimp. Dried shrimp has high palatability, comprehensive nutrients, and is easy to digest, making it very suitable for feeding turtles.

However, some dried shrimp are salty, and the keeper needs to confirm the salt content of the dried shrimp before feeding, and do not feed the salty dried shrimp.

In addition, the keeper should remove the head and tail of the shrimp before feeding. Because dried shrimp are relatively hard, if you don't remove the head and tail, it is easy to scratch the internal organs of the turtle, resulting in injury or infection of the internal organs.

Turtles are omnivorous animals, and they can eat a lot of food. Fish, shrimp, shellfish and aquatic plants can all be used as their food. Turtles bred in captivity can be fed some small fish, small shrimp, bloodworms, snails, lean meat, rice, wheat, peas, corn, etc.

Although turtles prefer to eat some animal feed, the keeper should still feed them reasonably to avoid their monotonous diet. Breeders can also feed some fresh vegetables, young leaves and fruits. This ensures that they are nutritionally balanced.

You can eat dried shrimp. Dried shrimp has high palatability and comprehensive nutrients, making it a turtle's favorite.

Precautions for feeding dried shrimp:

1. Some dried shrimp have too much salt, so be sure to taste them first, and soak them first, so as not to burden the turtle.

2. Be sure to buy regular dried shrimp.

3. Even if it is dried shrimp, it is best to remove the head and tail to reduce the possibility of the shrimp tip scratching the turtle's gastrointestinal tract.

Extended Materials. 1. There are two kinds of shrimp skin on the market, one is raw dried shrimp skin, and the other is cooked shrimp skin. The former is salt-free, has a strong umami taste, has a good taste, and is not easy to get damp and mildew, and can be stored for a long time.

2. Pay attention to the color when buying, it is better to have a white and bright color, if the color is dark yellow, the individual is soft and untidy, and there is no luster, the quality is not good, and it is not suitable to buy and eat. The latter is boiled and dried shrimp skin, with light red and shiny color, moderate soft and hard texture, and umami is preferred.

It's okay to feed a turtle dried shrimp skin. Turtles have a wide range of diets, such as wheat grains and pods.

I eat almost everything from fish, shrimp and insects, but my favorite is fish and shrimp, grains and insects. To avoid turtle malnutrition.

It is generally necessary to feed several types of food. But the turtle is very resistant to hunger, and it will not starve to death if it does not eat for several months.

Fresh fish and shrimp should be fed every day, and the small fry should be cut into several sections and cut into suitable sizes. Use small tweezers to pick it up or stick it in a toothpick and put it in water, slowly and patiently feed it through its nose and in front of it, or put it in water and put it in front of other people, and let it consume the first liquid on its own. For some turtles and baby turtles, it will not eat the whole fish if you put it directly in the water, and you need to cut it into several pieces and cut it into a suitable size that it can eat in one bite.

The same goes for shrimp, peel the head and tail, cut it into small pieces and stick it up or put it in water to feed it. Turtles are fed less lean pork and other meats, which contain parasites.

It's greasy and easy to get sick. Fresh fish and shrimp should be the main food. Like charcuterie, cooked meats and ham sausages.

Wait, you must not eat indiscriminately.

Turtles are reptiles.

Semi-aquatic and semi-terrestrial, most of the time living in water, such as rivers, lakes, ponds and other water areas, there is no fight between species. When a turtle encounters a predator or is frightened, it retracts its head and limbs into its shell.

Those who achieve the goal of self-preservation tremble.

The turtle has a long lifespan, mainly due to its food and hibernation habits. When the temperature drops, the turtle goes into hibernation without eating or drinking. When the temperature rises and food begins, it wakes up and starts moving.

Dried shrimp skin can be fed to turtles.

How to raise turtles.

1. Imitation feeding containers.

Storage boxes, logistics boxes, fish tanks, etc. can all be used to raise turtles. Before feeding, it should be disinfected with light salt water, potassium permanganate dilution, etc., and rinsed with water repeatedly after disinfection. The height of the container should not be too shallow, and the inner wall should not be too rough, because the turtle has a strong climbing ability, and a container that is too shallow and too rough can easily allow it to escape.

The feeding density should not be too large, too large density can easily cause turtles to fight and grab food, bringing the risk of tail breaking.

2. Water for feeding.

Turtles can be kept with tap water that has been dried in the sun for more than two days, well water, etc. After drying, it can remove harmful substances such as chlorine in the water, and at the same time can promote the reproduction of algae and probiotics in the water. Turtles are more stressful, and it takes a long time to adapt to the water quality after arriving in a new environment, and the direct use of tap water will cause turtles to get sick, so do not be greedy for convenience and directly use tap water to raise turtles.

The water level of the turtle should be 1 times the length of the tortoise's back carapace, so that the tortoise can stick its head out of the water at any time to breathe. Every time you change the water, you can change about half of the old water, pay attention to the temperature of the new water added should be consistent with the old water, and the water change time should be carried out every day when the temperature is high, so as not to cause the turtle to catch a cold. In addition, filters can be used to purify water quality, enhance water circulation, and reduce the frequency of water changes.

3. Feeding temperature.

The optimal growing temperature for turtles is between 25 and 30 degrees, with too high temperatures causing heat stroke and too low temperatures causing turtles to stop feeding. In summer, turtles should be raised to prevent heatstroke and cool down to avoid turtles from heat stroke and die.

Fourth, light. When raising turtles, it is necessary to set up a gentle slope and exposed sundeck in the water, so that the turtles can climb out of the water at any time to rest and bask their backs. Receiving proper light every day is of great significance to turtles, which can not only promote the synthesis of vitamin D3 in their bodies to speed up calcium absorption, but also effectively prevent the occurrence of various diseases.

Also, when sunbathing turtles in the summer, avoid the midday hours to avoid excessive temperatures.

5. Food. Turtles can be raised using a variety of water turtle larvae food, or they can be fed fish and shrimp meat. When feeding fish and shrimp, cut the food into appropriate shapes, too large food is not conducive to the turtle to eat, and pay attention to clean up the hard residue in the food to avoid scratching the turtle's gastrointestinal esophagus.

It can be fed once a day, and the amount of each feeding is preferably so that the turtle can eat it within 5 minutes. Do not overfeed food, first, overfeeding can easily cause indigestion and rapid growth of turtles, resulting in gastrointestinal diseases, growth deformities, etc.; Second, overfeeding is easy to produce too much food residue, resulting in poor water quality.

There is no problem with this, after all, turtles live in the water for a long time and mainly feed on small fish and shrimp.

There is not much harm in turtles only eating dried shrimp without eating turtle food, and the dried shrimp itself is also very nutritious, but it is still recommended that the owner do not only feed the dried shrimp when raising turtles. The owner should try to feed the turtle in a balanced nutrition, in addition to the dried shrimp, but also feed some turtle food appropriately to prevent the turtle from being picky eaters.

There is no big harm in turtles only eating dried shrimp and not eating turtle food, and dried shrimp itself is also considered a nutritious food, but turtles only eat dried shrimp and do not eat turtle food, and after a long time, they will be picky eaters, so they should be fed some turtle food in addition to dried shrimp.

Although it is not harmful for turtles to eat only dried shrimp and not turtle food, in order to have a balanced nutrition, other foods other than dried shrimp should also be fed, such as green vegetables and corn.

The owner should also pay more attention to the nutritional balance of the turtle, the turtle only eats dried shrimp and does not eat turtle food, but there is no benefit, the owner can mix turtle food and dried shrimp together for the turtle to eat. Not only dried shrimp, but also any kind of feed should be fed in a variety of ways to ensure the healthy growth of the turtle.

Antarctic krill nutrition: crude protein >> 62% crude fat >> 10% coarse ash powder >> crude fibre >> 8% moisture<4% Rich calcium, phosphorus and rich Antarctic krill astaxanthin. Antarctic krill astaxanthin is 40 times more than regular fish feed.

Eighty percent of the Adrey penguins on the Antarctic Peninsula also eat krill; Even the ferocious leopard seals love krill. Of course, the most popular krill lovers are the various giant cetaceans of the baleen whale family. These behemoths, which can grow to more than 100 tons, have eaten almost exclusively krill throughout their long lives.

Antarctic krill are shrimp-like invertebrates that live in groups, sometimes at densities of 10,000-30,000 individuals per cubic metre. They feed on tiny phytoplankton, from which they convert energy from primary production to sustain the life cycle of their pelagic zone.

Adult shrimp are 45 60 mm long, weigh 2 grams, and generally have a lifespan of 5 to 6 years. They are keystone species in the Antarctic ecosystem and are probably the most successful animal species on Earth in terms of biomass energy (about 500 million tonnes in total).

Other speculations suggest that these lights play an important role in mating or nocturnal gathering. The biological fluorescent organs of Antarctic krill contain several fluorescent substances. The maximum fluorescent excitation and emission of the main components can reach 355 nm and 510 nm, respectively.

Feed the Antarctic krill, soak them in fresh water until they are soft, and then you can feed them.

Animal feed has a high protein and fat content, which has the effect of promoting the growth rate of turtles and increasing the amount of breeding and spawning, such as earthworms, silkworm pupa, snails, mealworms, small fish and shrimp, snail shellfish, as well as animal scraps, pig blood, internal organs, moths, insects, etc. (can be caught by black light at night). The second is plant feed: plant feed varieties are very wide, and local resources can be used to raise turtles according to local conditions, such as soybean cake, peanut cake, corn, sorghum, wheat, and even rice and millet can also be fed to turtles.

There are also fruit and vegetable plants that can also be appropriately fed to turtles, such as pumpkin, winter melon, watermelon skin, apple peel, duckweed, tender grass and potatoes. These plant-based feeds are rich in vitamins and are essential for turtle growth. Feed the turtle with dry and hard plant feed, you should first soak it in water to swell, and then feed the turtle, if possible, feed it after cooking, the palatability is good, and the turtle loves to eat more.

Large pieces of plant-based feed should be chopped up before being fed in a pond or on a feeding table.

OK! Turtles often inhabit rivers, lakes and ponds. Animals such as worms, snails, shrimp and small fish are eaten, as well as plant stems and leaves and grains. It has a strong ability to withstand hunger, and will not starve to death if it does not eat for several months, and the tortoise changes its shell once every two years or so.

Turtles can be divided into amphibians and reptiles of the genus full water, half water and land according to different habits. It mainly inhabits rivers, lakes, reservoirs, ponds and other waters. During the day, they often sink into the water, and when it is hot in summer, they look for shade in groups.
