    3. Change the water of the breeding pond frequently, keep the pool water clean, and do a good job of hygiene in the breeding pond to prevent turtles from getting sick.

    4. The sand and soil in the open space between the pool and the fence should maintain a certain humidity, and some cooling measures should be taken in the middle of summer, such as sprinkling water and planting some small shrubs.

    5. Before the hibernation period, check the growth of the tortoise, add more feed to the weak, and feed the tortoise more feed, so that the tortoise can accumulate a large amount of nutrients, grow strong and winterize safely.

    Yes, my family will be raised together. But sometimes if the feeding is a little careless, the big turtle will bite the small turtle, so you should feed more to avoid fighting.
