    First of all, if we raise a small turtle, we first find a pot to raise a small turtle, you can put some water in the pot, don't put too much, so as not to live in the water for a long time, which is not good for the growth of the small turtle, we put less water.

    We can put some stones in the pot appropriately, so that the little turtle can climb on the top of the stone to rest, generally the little turtle does not particularly like to be in the water all the time, they still prefer to rest on some stones.

    The baby turtle is relatively small, we are in the early stage, it is better to feed the turtle food, so that the baby turtle will eat, secondly, it can also ensure the healthy growth of the little turtle, and after the baby turtle grows up, we will consider feeding some small shrimp meat is better.

    Then, when we raise a small turtle, we can properly release the small turtle to it for activities, do not keep it in the pot to raise, the small turtle itself crawls relatively slowly, we don't need to worry about the little turtle crawling all of a sudden.

    After that, when we raise baby turtles, we need to control the temperature, baby turtles generally need to survive in an environment of more than 20 degrees, which is conducive to its growth, and in winter, we need to keep the baby turtles at home.

    Finally, when we raise baby turtles, we need to have enough patience, otherwise it is difficult to raise baby turtles, because the growth rate of turtles themselves is relatively slow, and if turtles do not eat for a long time, it is easy to cause death, we need to have enough patience to take care of it.

    First of all, it is necessary to distinguish the species of turtle turtle, whether it is a water turtle or a half water turtle, most of the half water turtles are biased towards terrestrial habitat, and the water is not good, so do not raise in deep water, and the breeding environment of half water turtles generally only puts a pot of water, so that the turtle can climb into it, and there is no need to put it in the water for a long time. Turtles have a wide range of food, rice, wheat, peas, small fish, shrimp, insects, snails, etc., and the favorite foods are small fish, snails, corn and rice.

    In captivity, in order to meet the various nutrients needed for the growth of turtles and avoid stunted growth and anorexia due to single feed, a variety of feeds should be used, such as fish and shrimp, snails, mussels, etc. in animal feed and rice, wheat, corn, etc. in plant feed.

    About hibernation. When the temperature drops below 13 degrees Celsius from October to November, the turtle begins to hibernate until the temperature rises to 18 degrees Celsius in February and March. Hibernating turtles do not eat or move, only sleep.

    The easiest way to hibernate is to move the turtle into a dark and quiet place indoors, hibernate in shallow water (just above the carapace), and change the water once a month. In addition to changing the water, try not to disturb the turtle. Be careful not to lower the temperature than 6 degrees, otherwise it will endanger the turtle's life.

    How to feed the turtle:

    When keeping a tortoise, you need to make sure that the tortoise tank is large enough for the tortoise to move in. It is also necessary to build a shelter in the tank so that the turtle can hide.

    In terms of feeding, keepers can feed turtle food with small fish and shrimp. Some turtles can eat vegetables and fruits, or they can be fed a little bit appropriately, and they can be fed once a day.

    How much water to put in the turtle tank needs to be decided according to the species of turtle. If it is a shallow water turtle, the water level only needs to be lower than the turtle's back, and if it is a deep water turtle, the water level is three positions higher than the turtle.

    Precautions for turtle feeding:

    Breeding turtles should choose the right container, the water quality should be fresh, and maintain good ventilation and light transmission conditions, scientific feeding in breeding, often bathe turtles when they are free, keep the turtle shell clean, pay attention not to change the feed frequently, otherwise it is easy to have gastrointestinal diseases and other uncomfortable symptoms.

    In addition, the larger the turtle, the less the number of feeding, the smaller the turtle, the more times the turtle is fed, the young turtle is generally fed 3 times a day, the baby turtle is generally fed 1 time a day, and the adult turtle is generally fed once in 2-3 days. Female turtles should be fed more during the egg-laying season, and more nutritious foods should be fed on the eve of hibernation.

    Answer: Turtles are kept in the shade and eat shrimp, insects, snails, etc. The most suitable water tank is generally slightly higher than the turtle's back, if the turtle is smaller, never put too much water. In the middle of the jar you can put a stone larger than a turtle shell, but it should be flatter.

    This makes it easier for the baby turtle to climb up and rest.
