    Turtles only eat dried shrimp and do not eat turtle food, it is not okay, everything must pay attention to the diversity of food, if you do not feed turtle food, you must also match other foods to ensure balanced nutrition. Secondly, the characteristics of dried shrimp itself are not suitable for direct feeding to turtles, and the turtle food on the market is rich in types, which fully meets the needs of turtles.

    The dried shrimp is dehydrated and becomes hard, while the turtle has no teeth and cannot chew, and it takes a long time for the hard dried shrimp to enter the stomach of the turtle to digest, which is not conducive to the digestion and absorption of the turtle. In addition, in order to keep some dried shrimp fresh, the salt content in them is relatively high, and excessive salt intake will have an adverse effect on the growth and development of turtles. In addition, long-term feeding of one food can easily make turtles picky eaters, which will exacerbate the nutritional imbalance of turtles.

    Although water turtles will eat a variety of rich foods in the wild, meat is rich in protein and fat needed for survival, and the probability of obtaining live food in nature is the lowest, so if you have the opportunity to eat fresh meat, almost all water turtles will go crazy and feast. Although turtles are very fond of eating, it is not recommended to feed them live food. Long-term feeding may also lead to picky eating, especially of red meat.

    This kind of attractive and nutritious unbalanced food is particularly obvious, many owners feed the turtle only eat red meat and do not eat anything, like this to feed in the later stage many turtles have obvious edema.

    and deformities, some turtles end up because of fatty liver.

    and gastroenteritis to die. Balanced turtle food can meet all nutrients at the same time, it is safe and has good palatability, so we still recommend that you feed special turtle food with qualified quality as the staple food.
