    Lizards are small pets that belong to large sizes, and lizards used to live more in the wild. Nowadays, there are also many lizard lovers who take it home and give it the best and most appropriate care. If you also want to raise such a lizard pet, then you should first understand and learn, suitable environment for the lizard to grow, and then build a family breeding environment for it according to the requirements of the lizard's life, so that it can grow up happily and healthily.

    Lizards in the wild live in a variety of environments, and can live underground, on the surface, or in tall vegetation, between deserts and islands. Most lizards prefer to be active during the day and can make loud noises. Lizards hunt by waiting or seeking.

    There are also many lizards that are capable of self-cutting their tails, and the severed tails can be quickly twisted to distract predators, allowing them to escape.

    Lizards are ectothermic animals, and the most important environmental factor for lizards is temperature, and the length of the day is also important for the growth of lizards. Most lizards are oviparous, and their eggs are laid in burrows, cracks in trees, rocks, or under leaf litter. Whereas, some lizards are ovoviviparous or viviparous.

    To raise lizards at home, the first thing is to create an environment that is suitable for lizards to grow in. It is necessary to choose a terrarium and then provide a personalized feeding environment for different lizard species. At the same time, according to each person's preferences, they can arrange their favorite personalized settings without affecting them.

    However, creating a relaxed and pleasant terrarium environment for the lizard is the ultimate goal.

    In the process of raising a lizard, do not tease it casually, it is necessary to keep enough distance, because the lizard is a cold-blooded ectothermic animal, and it will attack its owner who often takes care of it at any time.

    Lizards are very clean-loving pets, some breeds even excrete at fixed points, and because they are covered in scales, lizards do not have the same strong body odor as cats and dogs. In fact, if you can clean up their living environment regularly, a lizard should be a pet that has little to no smell.

    In general, an individual lizard in normal health will excrete every 2 to 3 days, so if you are a very clean person, it is best to be able to keep cleaning up the environment once a week. And if you're like me and you're raising a lot of people, cleaning up the environment every week will be a scary amount of work, and if you're like me and have some tolerance for dirty environments, then I recommend that you do it half a week, that is, every half a month.

Both small lizards are more than an inch long, with earthy gray bodies with tiny scales and three pale green stripes on their backs.

    The two of them lay quietly on the rockery motionless, sculpture-like, only the pale yellow belly fell together, breathing quickly.

    Turtles are very tame and can accept any food, and judging by the food, they are very easy pets to keep. But a tortoise is the same as a lizard, both need to sunbathe. In addition, the tortoise is nearly round in size, and its weight is much higher than that of the turtle, and it is also very active.

    Ordinary cages tend to be too small, which can be more troublesome compared to other reptiles.

    Turtles are not exposed to ultraviolet rays and are also unable to use calcium. Compared to lizards, the facilities to prevent turtles from escaping are simpler, and as long as they are well supplied with water and have a shady place to rest, heat stroke is less likely to occur, and sunbathing is relatively simple.

    If the calcium intake of young turtles is insufficient, the shell of the turtle is prone to become soft; If you don't get enough vitamin A, your eyes may turn white. When the above phenomenon occurs, in addition to the problem of insufficient vitamin A and calcium, it may also involve long-term feeding of low-nutrient food, insufficient ultraviolet rays, etc., which may be a mistake in the feeding method.

    It is necessary to provide nutritionally balanced food and use solar lamps to completely change the breeding environment.

    Hello, I am inquiring for you here, please wait a while, I will reply to you immediately

    Hello, glad to answer for you, 1Natural wintering Turtles begin to hibernate below the water temperature of 15 and do not eat or move. Turtles wintering is relatively easy, in general years, when the temperature in the Yangtze River basin is within -8, when the water surface freezes in the morning, and the middle and lower water does not freeze, the turtle will not die, but if it freezes for several days in a row, there is a possibility of causing hypoxic suffocation of underwater turtles.

    Therefore, in winter, it is necessary to inspect the pond in the morning, and break the ice in case of ice to prevent death caused by long-term freezing. Ponds for turtle-fish polyculture are similarly managed.

    2 Kiln wintering choose a leeward sunny stove, dig a hole below 30 cm from the ground, the size of the angle depends on how much, the turtle can overlap each other, but should not be stacked too thick. One ventilation tube is extended from the hole, and the outer mouth is leeward and facing south. Seal the hole with wooden or cement boards, pile them on top and cover them with straw.

    Check once every 20 days, if the temperature in the cave exceeds 13, you can reduce the warmth on the hole; If the temperature in the cave is lower than 2, thicken the warmth. This method of wintering is simple and safe, and the cave has its own humidity, so there is no need to be drenched. In the same way, you can also use caves and bomb shelters to survive the winter.

    3 Indoor wintering According to the tenacious vitality and resilience of the turtle, it can be allowed to overwinter naturally indoors. Simple natural wintering indoors is adopted, and the turtle mortality rate is less than 2. Here's how:

    When the winter comes, when the water temperature drops below 13, the turtle is scooped up from the pond, put it into a quiet empty room, the turtle is stacked 2 3 layers, the upper cover is soaked in 30 cm of straw for half a day in advance, and then poured permeable water 1 time, the doors and windows are sealed and shaded, and then poured water once every 1 week or so, so that the straw can be dried. It has been recorded that it is safe when the indoor temperature is below 0, with a survival rate of more than 98% and no impact on reproduction in the following year. The biggest advantage of this method is that it can be cared for at any time and can accommodate a large number of turtle species for wintering.

    4 cylinder, box insulation wintering put the turtle in the tank or box, cover it, leave a certain ventilation hole on the cover, after putting the turtle, add some wet cloth or wet sponge to the turtle, you can also use wet sand, check once every 10 to 15 days, do not let it dry can also overwinter. This method is suitable for wintering of semi-aquatic turtles such as Huangyuan and small and medium-sized turtles. As long as the temperature in the tank does not drop below 0 (no less than 5 for tropical turtles), most turtles can survive the winter safely.

    In addition, the family small-scale turtle wintering management, the turtle can be stocked in a water container, placed indoors, and the temperature can be safely kept above 0, and the stocking density can also be increased by more than 1 times than usual, which is conducive to raising a certain temperature. For example, if you raise turtles in the micro-pond in the outdoor courtyard, you can cover the pond with plastic film to prevent the pond water from freezing, which is a very safe way to winter. Properly deepening the water level also has a thermal insulation effect.

    The easiest way to do this is to put some styrofoam sheets in a small pool and put straw on top to keep the turtles safe for the winter.

    In short, the main management of turtle wintering is based on the temperature as the standard, it is best to keep it in the range of about 5 13, and do not cause excessive energy consumption and spring death due to excessive energy consumption in the semi-awake state of 13 14 for a long time.
