The usual practice is to find food with a strong fishy smell, such as fish, earthworms, screws, shrimp, etc., and put it in front of the turtle, and the person will walk away, and come back half an hour later to see if it is eaten. Continue this practice for a long time, and then let the turtle slowly get used to eating in front of its owner;

    During the height of summer, the turtle is active in the morning and evening, and the bait should be swallowed in the water at 4 to 5 p.m., when the turtle eats. The amount of bait swallowed by the turtle is about 4% of its body weight, and it is fed every other day, and the residual food should be cleaned up in time after feeding to prevent harm caused by pollution. Change the water frequently to keep the water fresh.

    The little grass turtle is starting to be a little unmoving, but what is the matter with the love of eating?

    Turtles with timid and cautious personalities will be less active. However, there are still eating and normal physiological characteristics, which is also the key to being different from sick turtles although they do not like to move. In the face of a turtle that doesn't like to move much, we have to think about it from the perspective of Fang Kong.

    Don't follow our will, just think that the turtle is not sick, how to **. It is a living creature, and many times its actions are not subject to our will. Active tortoises will also have a few days when they are in a bad mood, and it is possible to be quiet for a few days.

    When dealing with turtles, sometimes we need to wait and see what happens, rather than tossing around.
