    When the water temperature is above 15 degrees, the turtle begins to eat. From June to September, the food is in full bloom, and the amount of food begins to decline in November. When the water temperature drops below 15 degrees, it goes into hibernation.

    In general, it is best for juvenile turtles to spend the winter separately from adult turtles. Most of the methods of turtle wintering are to put a small wooden plate indoors, put 20-30 cm thick sand in the plate, put the turtle into the sand, and then sprinkle centimeter thick fine sand on the turtle's body, cover it with gauze, spray some warm water appropriately, and you can safely overwinter.

    With a water temperature of 28°C, turtles are the most comfortable. Turtles with weak bodies and too small are not suitable for hibernation and are prone to sudden death under deep hibernation.

    Suggestion: Either hibernate naturally (6-12° automatic entry). Either you can heat and breed, buy a heating rod, just more than 20 yuan, heat to the water temperature of 28 degrees, and then feed and raise normally.

    In winter, don't put the turtle out of the window to bask in the sun, the water temperature is high and the air temperature is low, especially in windy weather. One is cold and the other is hot, and the temperature difference is too large, and the turtle will catch a cold and pneumonia, which is more difficult to treat.

    It depends on what kind of turtle, if it's a water turtle, such as a Brazilian turtle, if you don't want him to hibernate, add a heating rod to the fish tank, adjust the temperature to 29 degrees, and then it will eat. If it is a tortoise, add a heat lamp as well.

    The baby turtle is not afraid of hibernation, and will eat next spring. However, if the turtle is too small, it is recommended not to let it hibernate.

    When the temperature is below 10, the tortoise 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 this 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 job 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.

    Autumn and winter hibernation problems: Winter is the time when most terrapids and tortoises that live in the non-tropical wild hibernate and the ideal hibernation temperature should be between 7-10C for turtles living in colder regions. When the temperature drops below 15C, the turtle will go into hibernation, and if you are not ready to let it hibernate, you should keep the temperature at 22C-30C.

    Generally, below 20 degrees, the turtle's activity begins to decrease, and the amount of food it eats also decreases, and it eats less or no food. Healthy turtles are prepared before hibernation, they must have a healthy body and grow relatively plump; Otherwise, it may not wake up from hibernation. Stop feeding a week before hibernation and soak it in warm water, otherwise the accumulation of food and feces in the body during hibernation can easily cause gastroenteritis.

    In late summer, a healthy turtle will begin to store fat on its shoulders and legs. Breeders must rely on their knowledge of the turtle and their own judgment to determine whether their turtle is suitable for hibernation. A healthy turtle does not need to be fed food or disturbed to sleep during hibernation, as long as the terrarium is kept in moderation.

    In September, he began to supplement the turtle's nutrition and stick to the fat. Feeding is stopped about two weeks before hibernation, and the last three or four days are soaked in warm water to defecate and empty the bowels. When the domestic turtle enters hibernation, the glass container is covered with wet thick sand and covered with newspaper, and the turtle will sleep in the sand by itself, replenishing water once a week to keep the sand and newspaper moist.

    Turtles that do not hibernate in the sand can be placed in shallow water and covered with a layer of wet cotton yarn to keep them moist and also have a certain degree of heat preservation effect. Turtles hibernating in the sand should ensure that the sand is clean and pollution-free, and keep the sand moist during the tortoise's hibernation.

    In fact, many friends like to raise baby turtles, but we need to understand one thing to raise baby turtles, that is, when winter comes, they will hibernate, no matter how high the temperature in their house is, this is their normal body cycle, and in winter they will naturally enter a dormant state, that is to say, normal turtlesWhen autumn comes, they stop eating, all in preparation for hibernation.

    So when the turtle has stopped eating at this stage, you should pay attention to some, we can buy the incubator for the hibernation of the baby turtle in the pet market, of course, we need to place sand and some small stones in the incubator in advance, which helps to keep warm. Of course, these small sand stones must be sterilized in advance, boiled in boiling water for about 30 minutes, and then laid inside.

    The baby turtle eats more in the summer, which is also because in the winter when hibernating, the body consumes body fat, if it is not fed well, it may die directly during hibernation.

    The most important point is that the turtle should not be placed in a place where the sun is too strong when it is hibernating, a shady place is fine, and the humidity inside the incubator should be maintained, that is, a little water should be put in it regularlyMoreover, the hibernation environment of baby turtles should be maintained at about 10 degrees.

    The general incubator comes with a constant temperature function, which is very suitable for them to hibernate in such an environment. And don't disturb them during hibernation, if there are small children in the house, put the turtle out of their reach, because it is not good for them to wake them up frequently during hibernation.

As long as the white eye disease is not very serious, it will generally improve on its own as long as it is dry and nourished for a while.
