    Do you open your mouth to breathe, and your breath still makes a sound? Are there bubbles in the nose? Observe it and I'll give you an analysis First of all, it is not recommended to hibernate sick turtles and young turtles that are too small, they will not be able to keep up with their physical strength, and they will not wake up Hibernation is generally in East China from November to April of the following year, when the temperature is lower than 12 degrees, it will enter the state of hibernation, put the turtle in shallow water with a high back, and place it in a dark and quiet environment, the temperature during hibernation should be kept between 3 12 degrees, and the best hibernation temperature is 8 10 degrees, and it is forbidden to bask in the sun during hibernation, otherwise the turtle will wake up often, This will greatly consume the tortoise's physical strength, and it may die due to physical exhaustion in the spring.

    Feeding of water turtles: small fish, small shrimp, screws, raw meat and other nutritious foods. The baby turtle should cut the raw fish and shrimp and feed them well.

    Do not feed cooked lean meat, fatty meat and indigestible food. Otherwise, you will have indigestion and will get sick. If you don't have a filter at home, it's best to change the water once a day, and feed it once a day, don't feed too much, the turtle doesn't feel full, and the vitamin will not digest well, causing swollen legs.

    The amount of food a turtle eats is determined by the size of each turtle's head. Turtles defecate after eating, so it is easy to get rid of the meat tank if it is not cleaned in time. As long as the water quality is kept clean (the water quality is best exposed to direct sunlight for more than 1 day, it can prevent the turtle's white eye disease and water mildew, nail rot, rotting skin disease, etc.) and the constant water temperature (keeping the water temperature good can prevent the turtle from getting colds and pneumonia and other diseases) These two points are good to grasp the general formula of the turtle is not easy to get sick.

    1. The turtle is an amphibian, if it is placed in a pure pool that is not connected to the land, the pool must be placed with stones, bricks and other platforms exposed to the water surface for the turtle to dry its back and rest, the turtle likes to hide in the hole, so you can use bricks to build a turtle nest to improve the turtle's sense of security. 2. Most of the turtle's eating behavior is carried out in the water, and sometimes it is also eaten on the shore, and the food can be directly thrown into the water, or the food can be placed in the shallow water or near the slope of the water and land. When feeding shrimp, you should feed it with the shell to supplement calcium, but cut off the spikes of the shrimp head.
