    Brazilian tortoise. How to raise:

    Create an environment with water and land for it.

    Try to make the tank as large as possible, and give it as much range of motion as possible.

    Pile pebbles in the tank If you don't have a filter, don't have too many pebbles, which is easy to breed bacteria.

    There is enough land for them to rest and climb up to dry their backs.

    Remember to wash the pebbles and brush the tank every day

    In my family, I usually feed fish and shrimp or lean meat, remember to feed raw, and feed fish and shrimp to freshwater, they will be swollen when they eat salty things.

    Lean meat should be cut into small pieces and fed, preferably so small that it can be swallowed in one bite.

    Occasionally change the feeding of fish and shrimp If you feed shrimp, remove the shell of the shrimp head and feed it.

    The baby turtle should remove the shrimp shell and cut it into small pieces to feed the shrimp meat.

    If you feed the fish, feed the freshwater fish.

    They love loaches, eels and crab claw meat.

    When I feed my baby turtles, I put them in a separate basin with water

    The water can be submerged over the turtle's back.

    At this time, the water in the original tank is replaced.

    When it's finished eating, it's put back in the tank, so that the water quality is guaranteed.

    But sometimes it doesn't pull it after 30 minutes of eating, so I put it back in the tank and don't soak it in dirty water for too long.

    Do not use tap water directly for turtle raising

    Tap water must be dried or sunk for 2 days before it can be.

    Generally, when the temperature drops below 10 degrees, the turtle enters the hibernation period, and they will not end their hibernation until the day of the next lunar sting, so the method of raising turtles in winter is different...

    Winter: Either warm up for the winter, or hibernate naturally...

    If conditions permit, it is best to warm up for the winter, and baby turtles or sick turtles should be warmed for the winter.

    It is best to add a UV lamp to heat up for winter. . .

    If they hibernate naturally, I will hibernate them in shallow water now.

    The water does not go past the shell of the turtle, and there are pebbles in the water, and sometimes they climb up without wanting to soak in the water.

    Then the tank of the turtle is placed in a dark and constant temperature place indoors, and when the water is dirty, it will be changed once.

    Heating the heating rod bought by the aquarium for winter, stainless steel explosion-proof is the best, the temperature is adjusted to 26-28 degrees, pay attention to the temperature difference when changing the water, do not exceed 5 degrees, usually feed shrimp or pork, cut into small pieces to feed, raw.

    Add a UV lamp, turn on the sun twice a week for a while, 30 minutes each time, facing the back stone, it will climb up to dry, and then it will go down to soak in water by itself when it is hot...

    Don't bring it outdoors for the winter, the temperature difference is easy to catch a cold, and the ultraviolet lamp has the same effect as the sun. . .

    Now the most common are the Brazilian turtle and the grass turtle, the Brazilian turtle is an alien species, and the full name of the grass turtle is the Chinese grass turtle is a native species of China.

    The feeding habits of these two turtles are almost the same, fruits, small fish, small shrimp, various vegetables, and various meats can be their food.

    Both types of turtles feed and excrete in the water, and the hatchlings are usually raised two or three centimeters above the turtle bed.

    Now the most common on the side of the road should be the Brazilian turtle, followed by the grass turtle and then the flower turtle, the water nature of the Brazilian turtle will be much better than the grass turtle and the flower turtle, but remember that the turtle with good water quality has the risk of choking water in the young turtle stage, once choking on water, it is likely to cause pneumonia, and the young turtle has pneumonia is almost declared dead, so the water level is two or three centimeters higher than the turtle's back, except for some turtles with excellent water properties, such as pig-nosed turtles and yellow-headed turtles, these two turtles are born with depth charges.

    This is the red-eared Brazilian tortoise, which is the best type of turtle to keep. It is one of the most attractive species in the world, so please do not release it. It is the most common and cheapest turtle species on the market today, and it is most suitable for novices to breed.

    Now all the turtles have basically started eating, and the turtles that do not eat are sick. Turtles basically do not like to eat turtle food sold in the market, you can feed snails, bloodworms, snakes, decapitated river shrimp, loaches. Bloodworm snails and thread snakes are recommended.

    Do not use tap water to raise turtles, and leave tap water for a day. The water level should be just below the turtle shell, not too much, unless you have a large turtle tank that is in the water and land pattern. It is best to buy a bottle of turtle protection liquid to allow the turtle to grow healthily.

    Do not keep Brazilian tortoises and aquarium fish together ......The turtle is very good to grow slowly, feed more in summer, put it in a cool place, and you can bask in the sun for half an hour in the afternoon, which is good for the turtle's health.

    The Brazilian turtle is kept in a basin of water, and a stone is placed in it to rest, and it is fed some bread worms, pork liver, and lean meat. Small fish and shrimp, your turtle is too small, so don't feed turtle food.

    Brazilian tortoise. Here's what I recommend when teaching others to raise Brazilian tortoises.

    1: Temperature. Turtles only eat above 17 degrees, and turtles will not eat or simply hibernate if they are low. Don't let it hibernate when it's too low, you can heat it with a heating rod.

    2: Water. The water must be clean, preferably with filtration, and if it is not filtered, it needs to be changed every day. The water itself is also very important, and tap water can only be used for turtle breeding after being exposed to sunlight (about 20 hours or more).

    3: Food. The Brazilian turtle is omnivorous, but it prefers to eat meat, so feed it a variety of animal meat, and the internal organs are good.

    For example, chicken, pork, beef and other meats, pork liver and other animal offal. But it should be noted that meats such as pork cannot be fed fatty meat, and must be lean meat, because turtles do not have the ability to metabolize fat. To add up, cooked meat can be fed to turtles, but salted ones cannot be fed to turtles, and tortoises cannot eat salt.

    In fact, it is possible to feed feed, but the quality of feed is not guaranteed, so it is recommended not to feed, or to feed less.

    4: Turtle breeding container. Because Brazilian turtles are aquatic turtles, they can't do without water, and even live in water, so water is indispensable, and the water can't be too shallow, too shallow will affect the turtle to eat, and Brazilian turtles eat in water.

    Turtles need to bask in the sun because they need to grow, so there should be a place in the water where the turtle can bask in the sun, such as a large rock that can be exposed to the water and the turtle can climb up. The turtle container should be large enough, and the living space of the turtle is very large.
