    There is a special smell on the body. The Brazilian turtle has a small head, a blunt snout, a yellow-green longitudinal stripe on the head and neck, and a pair of red patches behind the eyes. The dorsal carapace is flattened, with a ring-like green stripe on each shield piece, and the hind edge is not serrate.

    I really haven't tried it, my tortoise has eaten a snail, they bite it like a melon seed, and eat the meat inside, and there is a tide insect and rat woman found in a flower pot, they also eat it, and the mosquito and fly are killed and thrown in, and they eat it. Ants really haven't tried it, but I've heard some people say that ants and chickens don't dare to eat them, I don't know why?

    Ants, as a group, are the natural enemies of turtles, so they should be guarded against.

    As an individual, it's up to the turtle to behave and react.

    If you feel uncomfortable eating ants, take measures.

    Brazilian tortoises are not allowed to eat ants.

    The Brazilian red-eared turtle is an omnivorous turtle that is resistant to hunger, and is mainly carnivorous during artificial breeding, especially in the juvenile and juvenile turtle stage, mostly with small fish and shrimp, lean animal meat, etc. as the main food, and the adult turtle stage can also eat plant feed (bananas, fruits, etc.) and worker compound feed. In the wild, the diet of adult turtles includes algae, duckweed and other herbaceous plants that emerge from the water, crustaceans such as pythons, small fish, shrimp, and various mollusks such as snail spiders.

    If you raise a baby turtle and it eats ants, let him eat it, but there may be few turtles that eat ants, there is a chemical gas on the ants, so the turtle will not eat, you can feed it snails and break the snail shell and put it in water to feed it.

    It is best not to eat ants because there is a chemical gas on the ants that cause diarrhea and other symptoms after ingestion.

    It is recommended to feed the Brazilian turtle: pork, tiny fish, snails, grasshoppers, flies, dried shrimp, etc.

    Pay attention not to feed too much, and when feeding it snails, break the snail shell and feed it in water.

    I don't think the Brazilian tortoise will be boring enough to catch ants and eat it. Maybe you mix a lot of ants into turtle food, and the turtles will eat them. But there's no point in doing that.

    Why do you want turtles to eat ants, even though they are also meat... But no.

    No, if you eat it, you'll die. Feed some fresh meat and fish, cut it into small pieces, put it under its nose, it will eat when it smells, sleep, so don't you bask it in the sun every day, usually pay attention to whether it has any abnormalities, see if it is sick, if there is a problem you can go to a call"Crawl the world"It will be helpful to take a look at it. Upstairs said that the turtle will bite this is true, my little turtle will too, but only when I bathe it (it sometimes eats when eating with very dirty paws) will bite, but the little turtle bite is not painful, it is difficult to say when it is big, so it is best to let it eat some vegetables, and remember to change the water after feeding, otherwise the water quality will deteriorate and it will get sick.

    You're not pictured with a Brazilian tortoise.

    It is better not to give such a strange bite, which is likely to bite the turtle.

    If you have to give, you have to deal with it.

    Brazilian turtle recipes are varied, and there are many to choose from.

    OK. Turtles are omnivorous, and insects can be fed. But feeding ants is not recommended. It's too small for the turtle to be delicious. Not as good as earthworms or other insects.
