How do you raise turtles in winter? Can it be raised without water?

No, even if it is hibernating, the breeding environment should be kept in moderation Put a little water Turtles of the water turtle can not be raised 24 hours a day regardless of hibernation or winter Turtles are divided into several categories: Water turtles, semi-water turtles, tortoises, and sea turtles in the Aral Sea.

If you don't feed it with water, then you can raise it with fire.

He hibernates, it doesn't matter, whether he puts water or not, because his eyes are closed, and so is my tortoise, and it's okay when spring comes.

Turtles are dried in winter.

The tortoise cannot be released into water in winter, and it will disturb its hibernation if it is raised in winter. You can put him on top of the damp yellow sand and keep it moist to facilitate his breathing. Or make a small hill with yellow sand on one side of the pool, so that it can climb up in the water in case it doesn't want to bask in the sun, and take care to prevent freezing.

Semi-dry breeding is to soak the water 3 times a day for about 15 minutes each time, the water temperature to your hand to touch the temperature can be, the breeding box must be covered, the cover should be left with a small slit for ventilation, can play a role in heat preservation, no heating rod, soak in 15 minutes of water is almost cold, take out the turtle, dry in the breeding box, wait for the next soaking water, pay attention to the water temperature.

Introduction to the turtle

Turtles are a very old class of reptiles, and their ancestors appeared on Earth as early as 100 million years ago. They have witnessed the prosperity and decline of dinosaurs, the evolution and prosperity of birds, the origin and prosperity of mammals, the development and glory of human civilization, and witnessed all the vicissitudes of life in the world.

Turtles are a class of animals that evolved from the early primitive turtles, and turtles and turtles are collectively referred to as turtles and turtles.

There are more than 300 species of turtles and turtles in the world, which are divided into two groups: side-necked turtles and curve-necked turtles, which taxonologically belong to the suborder and the curve-necked turtle suborder under the order Turtles and Turtles, respectively.

As the name suggests, the neck of the side-necked turtle can only be sideways and hidden under the shell, and the head cannot be retracted into the shell, which belongs to the more primitive turtle species; The neck of the curved-necked turtle can be retracted freely, and the head can be retracted into the shell, which is more advanced than the side-necked turtle.

There are few extant species of side-necked turtles, which are currently only distributed in the southern hemisphere, while the curved-necked turtles are the main members of the existing turtles and turtles, and tortoises, most freshwater turtles, sea turtles and soft-shelled turtles belong to the turtles.

Turtles do not need to be put in the water, they are ectotherms, and their lives are greatly affected by the ambient temperature. From November to March, when the temperature is below 10, the turtle lies in the silt at the bottom of the pond or lies in the loose soil covered with straw, does not eat or move, and hibernates, at which time its metabolism is very slow and weak.

It is not until early April, when the temperature rises above 15, that the turtles begin to resume their activities and feed in large quantities, so there is no need to feed or change the water during the hibernation period, and the main work during this period is to keep warm.

About 10 days before hibernation, the turtle should not be fed, let it remove feces from its body, and when it fully enters hibernation, just cover it with a moist towel and put it in a place where there is no noise.

Turtles need to be put in water in winter, and if they are kept in a greenhouse, they need to be put in water every day to stabilize the water temperature at 15 or more. If you don't want it to hibernate, feed it once a week if the temperature is right. When raising a turtle at room temperature in winter, it needs to be allowed to enter a state of hibernation, and before hibernation, it is necessary to feed more protein-rich meat and hoard fat for wintering.

Turtles need to be placed in water in winter, if the turtle is placed in a greenhouse for maintenance, it needs to be soaked in water every day to make the turtle grow healthily, once it is out of the water body, it will be life-threatening. During the feeding period, the water temperature should be stabilized above 15 to avoid the temperature being too low and affecting its normal growth.

If you don't want the turtle to hibernate, in addition to controlling the water temperature, you need to feed it regularly. The general temperature is suitable, you can feed 1 time a week, if the water temperature is kept at about 20, you can feed 2 times a week, you can generally feed fresh small fish and shrimp, and with vegetables and fruits.

Turtles are kept at room temperature in winter, and they often need to be allowed to hibernate in low temperatures in winter. Hibernation usually lasts for several months, so in order for the turtle to survive the hibernation period, it is necessary to feed more protein-rich meat to accumulate fat before hibernation. Half a month before hibernation, you need to stop feeding and soak it in warm water to expel the impurities produced in the body.

Turtles need to be released when they are raised in winter, because no matter what the season, turtles need to be in the water to grow normally, so they also need to be released when breeding turtles in winter.

In winter, the temperature is relatively low, and when breeding turtles, it is necessary to install a heating device so that they can grow normally.

If the tortoise goes into hibernation, then the keeper does not need to feed them.

Although their metabolism will be very low after winter sleep, they also need to change their water regularly.

1. Control the temperature: If the keeper does not want the turtle to go into hibernation, the water temperature needs to be controlled above 20. If the keeper wants to put the turtle into hibernation, the temperature should also be controlled above 5.

Because tortoises hibernate between 5-10 years ago, Bihong is the most suitable for them, and when the temperature drops below 5, they may be frozen to death by the burrow.

2. Pay attention to inspection: turtles are prone to illness in winter, and when they are artificially raised, they need to be checked regularly to avoid them getting sick. When they are found sick, they need to be given immediately**.
