    15th floor. Turtle feeding: Depending on the region, the temperature and light are different.

    The turtle eats in the morning and evening. If you want the turtle to eat as soon as possible: one is to increase the water temperature, generally the water temperature is above 15 degrees, and the turtle will gradually start to eat.

    The higher the temperature, the earlier the turtle feeds. The second is to increase light, light can increase the appetite of turtles, light can also supplement calcium to turtles, sunlight ultraviolet rays can also sterilize, prevent diseases. Therefore, increasing the light time can increase the appetite of the turtle and make the turtle eat as soon as possible.

    If the turtle lacks light for a long time, the turtle will not eat until May. The turtle will be anorexic and will not eat. They are usually eaten at the beginning of April every year.

    The morning and evening of the turtle's feeding is determined by the temperature and light, the higher the temperature, the longer the light time, and the earlier the turtle feeds. Therefore, we should increase the light, which is my experience of raising turtles for more than 10 years.

    Turtles should pay attention in spring: In spring, turtles have spent a long hibernation period and have begun to enter the growth period. Attention should be paid during this period:

    The first is to let the turtle bask in the sun as much as possible, which is conducive to the turtle's appetite; And use sunlight and ultraviolet rays to sterilize, reduce diseases, and focus on prevention; Increasing the light can also replenish the turtle with calcium, and the turtle will be more colorful. The second is to feed nutritious food: such as raw small fish, small shrimp, screws, earthworms, insects, worms, lean meat and other foods, small turtles should be small fish, small shrimp after cutting fine, and then feeding, can be fed with tweezers.

    Do not feed cooked lean meat and fatty meat and other indigestible food, otherwise the turtle will get sick, let the turtle eat as much as possible during the growth period, so that the turtle can grow faster. The third is to keep the turtle tank clean and hygienic, and change the water frequently.

    Such a small turtle will definitely not survive the hibernation period, and the baby turtle is recommended to be warmed in winter. What is the room temperature in your home? If it is above 20 degrees, it can be kept indoors, or it can be raised on the heating in a small container. You can't eat until the temperature is high.

    This is normal, don't worry, as long as you pay attention to the heat preservation, you can put it in a container with sand, it will burrow itself, all you have to do is take it out of the sand regularly and feed it with some water, don't worry about it starving to death.

    1. It is not necessary to use a heating rod, but the temperature should be at least higher than 20 degrees, otherwise it will definitely hibernate, and the young turtles are easy to die from hibernation. My solution was to put the cylinder next to the heater instead of the heating rod. Because they often violently smash the heating rod.

    2.Sand. Land. The sundeck ......These are dispensable, my turtle is in an empty tank, raised in deep water for 12 years, very healthy. (Later, he was actually released by his parents .......))

    3.I think it's necessary to filter it, because this product can be eaten and pulled, and if you are a lazy worm, you must not be able to change the water.

    4.It can be raised in any environment, and some people can raise turtles in pots. There is also a genius lazy worm, who has been free-range in the house for several years, and sometimes he can't find the turtle for several months to run to the **, and his turtle must have eaten cockroaches and other insects to survive.

    1. Heat the rod in winter, high temperature or hibernation can not be used, spring, summer and autumn do not use.

    2Instead of sand, use stones and other objects to build a terrace.

    3. You don't need to filter it, don't put water in the sorting box, don't end the turtle's back, build a terrace in deep water, and change the water after feeding.

    1. You should.

    Bai should change the cylinder, change a bigger one, put it.

    du heating stick, add to.

    Zhi28 degrees or so. (You can let the parents buy it) 2. Is it floating in the water? If you float on your side and open your mouth repeatedly, you should catch a cold, so treat it quickly!

    I don't know how to cure colds, check the prescription myself), if it's just a simple float, it looks like I'm hungry. Not very clear.

    3. Don't open your eyes when you're hungry. Observe that he has a white membrane on his eyes, and it means that he should have a slight white eye, and you can see how to treat white eye, a common disease of Brazilian tortoise.

    It's simple, just like my family's heating, but there is a premise, on the first day, there is no turtle in the tank, and the temperature is slightly lower than the human body temperature.

    If it is high, put something under the cylinder until the temperature is right. As for the opening bar, first of all, you have to let it adapt, and the temperature should be basically constant, and it should not change drastically.

    First of all, your turtle should come because the temperature of the ring source environment is too low or unstable to cause the problem of not eating, and the turtle and turtle basically don't eat much when they are below 20. If you don't want him to die soon, buy a turtle tank that can put down the heating rod to raise it, the problem can be adjusted to about 30, and then observe if there is a cold, if there is no cold, it will be eaten in a few days. To add, in the end, the environmental problem is also a little higher.

    If you have any questions, you can go to the forums such as the turtle friend's house to take a look, after all, it's your little pet, so be kind to it!

    Floating on the water, it means that it is not caused by biological disease or malnutrition? Have you had white eye before? Are you sure?

    Do you eat during your illness? And how much is the temperature, it is best to keep it at about 25 degrees, to be more detailed, are there any other symptoms, such as opening the mouth to breathe frequently, drifting sideways?

    Your head, hands, etc. are not normal, it should be hungry, and your turtle should be super thin.

    The criteria for hibernation are: If the abdominal carapace is 7 to 8 cm, hibernation can be considered.

    If it is really hibernating, try to wake it up less and move, because it will consume a lot of energy, and don't overfeed it, and it will also take physical energy to digest food.

    Your situation should not be very likely to hibernate much, the turtle's survival temperature is about 25 degrees, and your turtle may not be able to eat on its own initiative now, this problem is a bit big.

    To isolate, put some salt in the water to sterilize. Don't put too much water. Salt is the kind bought at the fish market without iodine. Just throw a capsule of gentamicin in the water and you're done! Changing the water is important! Very important!

    Then I guessed: it was too cold, the turtle didn't eat much, and its body was weak, so put it on the heater, or inject a little grape grain to try.
