Water level and water quality problems: water turtles are to release water The edge of the turtle shell can be used The water quality must not be used Directly connected tap water to raise turtles The water should be put for at least one day and then used There is chlorine in the tap water Turtles will be poisoned if they are used for a long time Eyes will have problems As long as the water quality is kept clean (the water quality is best with water that has been exposed to direct sunlight for more than 1 day, it can prevent turtle white eye disease and water mildew and nail rot in terms of **, rotten skin disease, etc.) and the constant water temperature (keeping the water temperature good can prevent turtles from getting colds and other diseases such as pneumonia) These two points are good to grasp the general formula of turtles, and the food that is not easy to get sick is quantified according to the size of each turtle's head.
Food problems: Turtles like to eat raw meat food Don't feed cooked food and food with seasoning It's best to feed shrimp meat Fish Other raw meat cut into pieces to feed turtle food Shrimp skin can also be soaked in water for 10 minutes because the shrimp skin bought is salty.
Autumn and winter hibernation problems: before hibernation, they must have a healthy body and grow relatively plump; Otherwise, it may not wake up from hibernation. Stop feeding a week before hibernation and soak it in warm water, otherwise the accumulation of food and feces in the body during hibernation can easily cause gastroenteritis.
In late summer, a healthy turtle will begin to store fat on its shoulders and legs. Breeders must rely on their knowledge of the turtle and their own judgment to determine whether their turtle is suitable for hibernation. It is important to know that any form of hibernation is very important for the health of turtles"Harsh"The test.
If you are healthy enough to raise a turtle larger than 6 cm in one year, you can consider raising it until the second year to hibernate the turtle But sick turtles, young turtles, and turtles bought in the first year should not hibernate if they spend the winter The system is too weak and hibernation is easy to s, and the physical strength cannot keep up. This is to consider the use of warming or semi-dry breeding to use a warming rod (warming rod ornamental fish market is sold, ask the store to pay attention to the usage. The price is about 20 for glass, and about 50 for stainless steel.

It's almost hibernation now.

At a temperature above 24 degrees of water temperature, you can feed 1-2 times a day, each time a turtle eats about 1/10 of the turtle volume, when the water temperature is 20-24 degrees, it should be fed once every 2-3 days, when the temperature is 18-20 degrees, you can feed once a week, when the temperature is below 18 degrees, stop feeding, to prevent the temperature from being too low and the body is not digested and cause the turtle to get gastrointestinal diseases.
In the case of choosing the amount of food according to the volume of the turtle, a small turtle under 3 cm, a turtle only needs 5 young turtle food per day, 3-5 cm, you can have 5-8 small grains of turtle food, 5 cm -8 cm turtle can be 5-8 grains of medium grain turtle food, and turtles above 8 cm can generally rely on personal feelings, or feed according to 1/10 of the volume, provided that the temperature mentioned above is considered. Snapping turtles can be fed more than other turtles, have strong digestion ability, and their own metabolism in the body is faster than that of many turtle species, so snapping turtles grow faster, but the leftover bait that cannot be eaten should be cleaned up in time to keep the water clean and dry.
Extended Information: Turtle Feeding Notes:
1. Choose the food suitable for the size of the turtle according to the size of the turtle, such as in the stage of juvenile turtles and young turtles, you can grind the fish and shrimp meat with a meat grinder, and then mix it with the powdered feed of the soft-shelled turtle and feed it together. Sub-adults and adult turtles can directly process fish meat and shrimp meat into lumpy feed suitable for the size of their mouths, and remove the large fish bones in the fish meat to avoid causing injuries to the turtle's esophagus, thereby causing damage to the turtle.
2. Different foods should be processed differently, for example, for snail food, the shell should be crushed and fed. Usually, multivitamins and calcium additives can be appropriately mixed in turtle feed at intervals to meet the nutritional and physiological needs of turtles. When the weather temperature changes greatly, especially when the temperature drops by more than 3, you can feed less or no feeding, so as not to cause indigestion of turtles.
Hope it helps you and please thank you in time.

Turtle feeding depends on the season, weather and turtle appetite, generally spring and autumn temperature is low, turtles are not active in the morning and evening, only around noon feeding, so it is advisable to feed at 8 to 9 o'clock in the morning.
From the valley rain to the autumn equinox is the peak season for turtle feeding, it is the height of summer, turtles are generally inactive at noon, but mostly in the afternoon 17-19 o'clock active foraging, so feeding should be carried out at 16-17 o'clock in the afternoon. Timing allows the turtle to eat on time, get more nutrients, and also ensure that the feed is fresh.
The amount of feed depends on the temperature, water quality, appetite and activity of the turtle, depending on the appetite and activity, and it is advisable to have a slight surplus in the meal. Generally, it is fed once every 1 2 days.
Extended Materials. The feed of turtles is more extensive, strictly speaking, there are more turtle feeds, and the diet is wider than that of turtles, mainly including: animal feed, plant feed and mixed feed.
First, animal feed: 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 eggs spawned, such as earthworms, silkworm pupa, snails, mealworms, small fish and shrimp, snails and mussels, as well as animal scraps, pig blood, internal organs, moths, insects, etc. (can be trapped by black light at night). The second is plant-based feed:
There are a wide range of plant-based feed varieties, which can be used to raise turtles according to local conditions, such as soybean cake, peanut cake, corn, sorghum, wheat, and even rice and millet. 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.
The third is mixed feed: these feeds are nutritious and diverse, and are divided into juvenile, young and adult turtle feed according to the growth stage. Feeding turtles with these feeds has a very significant effect, and its growth rate, spawning rate, egg production, hatching rate, and survival rate have also been improved.

Hello, turtles are usually fed once a day or two, but they should be fed every day during the hatchling period. This animal has a relatively low metabolism, is very hungry tolerant, and can even go without food for 3-4 months during hibernation. At the same time, its appetite is related to temperature, if the temperature is relatively high, its appetite will be more vigorous, if the temperature is low, it will not like to eat, so controlling the temperature is the key to raising turtles.
-
In terms of food, baby turtles need a lot of calcium to ensure that the shell of baby turtles has enough nutrients, so they need to be fed food that contains a lot of calcium when feeding. Foods that contain a lot of calcium include fish meat and fish fillets, but only eating these substances may cause malnutrition in baby turtles, so you may need to use some foods that contain other nutrients, such as peanuts, corn, sorghum, wheat, rice, millet, etc., or pumpkin, winter melon, watermelon rind, apple peel and other foods can supplement other nutrients. Therefore, it is usually fed once every 1 to 2 days, so you can't feed too much!
-
You can feed it once a day, a dozen grains at a time. It can also be fed once a week. The turtle grows more slowly, and its shell grows better.
-
Under normal circumstances, it is sufficient to feed the turtle 2-3 times a week. It is usually fed once a day in the summer, once a few days in the fall, and no feeding is required if it hibernates in the winter.
-
The baby turtle can't eat more, just feed it once every five days or so, and the water changes every day. Mine has not eaten, the temperature is below 25 degrees it does not like to eat, the turtle begins to hibernate when the temperature is 5 to 10 degrees, the temperature of the building is high it does not hibernate, but it will eat less, and it does not always move! If the turtle's eyes are swollen and can't be opened, it may get white eye disease, so it doesn't like to eat, and mine is.
The baby turtle is not easy to raise, alas.
-
In addition to getting sick, it is also possible that the water temperature is too low if the turtle does not eat. See.
-
I also have two turtles in my family, and I have been raising them for more than 3 years, and I feed them about once every 5-10 days, but sometimes it's normal for turtles to go without food for 1-2 months.

The feeding frequency of domestic turtles needs to be determined according to the temperature, if the temperature is higher than 24, it needs to be fed 2 times a day, 20 24 is fed once a day, and when the temperature is at 18 20, the turtle's appetite will decrease, it can be fed once a week, if it is lower than 18, it can be stopped.
The amount of food and the desire to eat of the turtle need to be determined by the temperature, when the temperature rises, the turtle's appetite will rise, and the metabolic rate will also increase, so you can feed more. If the temperature is at a relatively low stage, the turtle will have a decreased appetite and can reduce the number of feedings.
When the temperature is higher than 24, it is recommended that the keeper feed 1 2 times a day, and when the temperature is 20 24, feed once every two days, when the temperature is lower than 20, the turtle's appetite will drop significantly, and it can be fed once a week. If the temperature is below 18, the turtle does not need to be fed.
To feed the tortoise, simply place the food in the food bowl and the tortoise will come and eat on its own. When it finishes eating, in order to prevent food residues from polluting the water quality, the keeper needs to clean the water in time.

It is enough to feed a domestic turtle once a day, and feeding too much will cause the turtle to gain weight and cause stress on the turtle's body. And the amount of each feeding should be determined according to the amount of food eaten by the turtle, and if there is any food that the turtle has not eaten, it should be cleaned up in time to avoid deterioration and spoilage of water quality. Turtles should keep the temperature between 20 and 30 degrees when eating, and eating below 20 degrees will cause indigestion.
It is enough to feed the domestic turtle once a day, and it is easy to make the turtle gain weight by feeding more, or it can be fed once every two days, which can prevent the turtle from eating too much and gaining weight, causing pressure on the turtle's body and affecting health.
After each feeding, you should also observe the amount of food eaten by the turtle, and carry out the next feeding according to the amount of food, if there is any food that the turtle has not eaten, it should be cleaned out in time to avoid deterioration and water quality in the water.
The best feeding temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees, below 20 degrees do not feed the turtle, it will cause indigestion of the turtle, it is best to let the turtle bask in the sun after feeding, which can increase the absorption of calcium and help digestion.
Change the water once a day and eat 2 to 3 times a day. Grow fast.
You can eat egg yolk, but it is not recommended, because feeding cooked egg yolk will have a lot of food residues, which has a great impact on water quality, although the turtle's requirements for water quality are not as high as fish, but the water quality decline will have a certain impact on the tortoise shell and eyes, especially now that the water quality deteriorates quickly in summer, and the residue will be trapped in the gap of the tortoise shell, pay attention to the cleaning work, whether the turtle can eat the cooked egg yolk, this can be fed with confidence. >>>More
Eating it, a turtle that doesn't eat shrimp is not called a turtle.
