3 How to survive the winter of small turtles of 5 cm

Here's how to get a baby domestic turtle through the winter:

1. First put a layer of potted mud at the bottom of the container where the turtle is raised, with a thickness of 3 cm, spread aquatic plants on it, and then put the turtle in;

2. Find a cardboard box at home, spread straw, put it in a container for raising turtles, and then put the carton in a ventilated place, and the room temperature needs to be above 3 degrees;

3. During the hibernation of the turtle, you can't go to see the turtle, you can't disrupt the normal metabolism of the turtle, if you disturb them at this time, it is easy to make the turtle wake up in hibernation, resulting in the death of the turtle.

Small turtles of 3-5 cm spend the winter and need to take the following measures:

1.Prepare a large enough tank or round utensil, add clean water, and the amount of water should not exceed the turtle's back by 3-5 cm. The water tank should be placed indoors in a warm and dark place to maintain a constant temperature.

2.Put a small amount of clean food, such as small fish, small shrimp, red nematode, etc., in the feeding container, and let the baby turtle eat independently.

3.The number of feeding depends on the temperature, if the water temperature is high, generally 1 time a day; If the water temperature is low, feed 1 time every 2-3 days.

4.Pay attention to supplementing vitamins and minerals, you can buy special nutrients or medicinal powders for turtles, dissolve them in water, and let them be ingested by baby turtles.

5.Change the water regularly, generally every 2 days, to keep the water clean.

6.Do a good job in disease prevention, and regularly put some ** drugs in the water tank, such as gentamicin, oxytetracycline, etc.

7.In winter, it is also necessary to ensure that the baby turtle has a certain amount of exercise, and equipment such as sunken wood and floating boards can be placed in the water to encourage the baby turtle to crawl and swim.

By following the steps above, a 3-5 cm baby turtle will be able to survive the winter safely.

Turtles hibernate from November to April. When the temperature is below 15 degrees, the turtle gradually stops eating and begins to hibernate in the winter period. While it is still not hibernating, you should try to feed him his favorite food and store enough nutrients to ensure a safe winter.

You can't leave the water when hibernating, or you'll get sick.

Small grass turtles of three or four centimeters cannot hibernate, because the small grass turtles are relatively fragile and their physical development is not yet perfect, and they are very easy to die after entering hibernation. In winter, the keeper needs to raise the temperature to more than 15 so that the baby grass turtle does not go into hibernation for the winter. It is also necessary to raise the baby grass turtle in the sand, and water it regularly to ensure that the sand is moist.

Small grass turtles of three or four centimeters cannot hibernate, and small grass turtles of three or four centimeters belong to young turtles, with weak physique and incomplete body development. If you go into hibernation, it is easy not to wake up and die.

In winter, the keeper needs to keep the baby grass turtle warm so that the baby grass turtle does not enter hibernation to survive the winter, and the keeper can control the indoor temperature above 15, so that the baby grass turtle will not enter hibernation.

In winter, the keeper can place the baby grass turtle in the sand to keep it warm. Keepers only need to water the baby turtles regularly to ensure that the soil is moist.

Grass turtles of 3-4 cm need to be warmed to grow in winter, because they are newly born and their body size is relatively small, and if they go directly into hibernation, they may freeze to death.

In winter, they need to be fitted with a heating rod or lamp to keep the water temperature between 22 and 28.

After maintaining a stable temperature, the breeder also needs to feed them regularly to ensure that they are nutritionally balanced.

1. Water temperature: 3-4 cm Xianzhi grass turtle has just been born, and its adaptability to the environment is also poor, and when it is raised in captivity, it is necessary to keep the water temperature between 22-28, so that they can grow better.

2. Water quality: The requirements for water quality are not high, and the breeder only needs to keep the water quality clean. The frequency of changing the water does not need to be too high, and it is enough to change the water once a week.

3. Feeding: Small grass turtles do not have high requirements for food, and when they are artificially raised, they can be fed some bloodworms, earthworms, small fish, small shrimp, animal offal, etc., to ensure that their nutrition is sufficient.
