Let the turtle bask in more sun (avoid exposure in summer and not in winter) and keep the water clean. The water level in the tank is kept at such an end that the turtle's neck and nostrils can be exposed, and a stone can be placed in the water to let the turtle dry its back.
It's good to feed it once a day, and the amount is so specific that the turtle can eat it within 20 minutes, and if you can't eat more, it will affect the water cleanliness.
Juvenile turtles are better fed with turtle food and red nematodes, and adult turtles can be fed with fish, shrimp and loaches, supplemented by green vegetables.
This amount needs to be experimented, that is, the turtle is fed until it does not eat, and the amount of food it eats will be known after a few trials. The turtle won't be eating when it's full, so there's no need to worry about the turtle holding on. After trying out the amount of food, it is better to feed less each time, not too much.
The turtle begins to stop eating at around 20 degrees Celsius and enters hibernation at 13 degrees Celsius. If the turtle is relatively small and its physical strength is not enough to survive hibernation, you can buy a heating tube to heat the water temperature to 26-28 degrees, and you can feed and feed normally. The water must completely submerge the heating rod.
You can spread the turtle tank with sand, create a slope row of water inside the turtle tank, and bury the heating rod in the sand. The water will be able to completely bury the heating pipe.

Generally, novices who have just started raising turtles say that they hibernate.
Not necessarily when they actually hibernate.
Because novices will not tell if the turtle is sick or hibernating.
As long as the sick turtle is sleepy, it gives people the illusion that it is hibernating in winter. How to tell if the turtle is sick and lethargic or whether the really healthy turtle is hibernating depends on it.
In the past, eating normally was not and the spirit was better.
Do you have any white swelling in your eyes? Are there white spots and signs of peeling on the extremities? Do you open your mouth to breathe, and your breath still makes a sound? Are there bubbles in the nose? Observe and I'll break it down for you.
There are many reasons not to eat, 1When the weather is cool and the water temperature is low, the turtle will increase or decrease its appetite as the temperature changes.
2.Sick. 3.Just bought it back and was not familiar with the environment.
4.The food doesn't fit well.
Food problems. If you have a terrabahn, you like to eat meaty food. Feeding of terrapids turtles:
Nutritious foods such as small fish, shrimp, and raw meat. 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. Turtles mostly eat in the water, sometimes on the shore, and can be thrown directly into the water, or they can place their food in shallow water or near the slope where land and water meet. When feeding shrimp, you should feed it with the shell to supplement calcium, but cut off the spikes of the shrimp head.
Water quality issues. 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. The water department is clean, and the turtle is easy to get sick when it stays in the water.
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 turtle white eye disease and water mildew, nail rot, rotten skin disease, etc.) and the water temperature is constant (keeping the water temperature good can prevent turtles from getting colds and pneumonia and other diseases) These two points are mastered well, and the turtle is not easy to get sick.
Feeding environmental problems.
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.

Hello. lz
Turtle rearing. It can be based on.
Space for turtles.
Environment, sanitation and so on.
Food. The main thing is that your turtle is carnivorous.
It's still vegetarian...
If it's vegetarian.
Suggestion. Feed some breadcrumbs or something.
Steamed buns are also available...
It comes by the size of the tortoise.
Feeding carnivores is also based on the size of the turtle.
Feed with shredded meat.

It is a Brazilian red-eared turtle, male and female can not be seen when they are young, it eats ordinary turtle food, eats meat once a month (a trace is enough, don't feed too much, or it will die) Winter hibernation from December to early March, no matter how big the turtle tank is. Mine looks exactly like your tortoise, mine was given to me by my brother, and my tortoise (the big) once ate meat and hiccuped.

It shouldn't hibernate when it's warm indoors, and if you feed it apples, of course it won't eat it, and he wants to eat meat, raw pork, not too much, and the fish tank should put some sand and water at the same time, and I know so much, I hope it can help you.

Buy a tank dedicated to raising baby turtles, put it in, and find some small fish, lean meat and other foods for it to eat, and it also needs to bask in the sun! Huh

Is your turtle big? ,It's easy to raise if it's big.,It's okay if it's small.,There are some turtles that eat meat.,You feed it to see if it's meat.,Anyway, my turtles eat everything.,Don't eat vegetable leaves (tortoises don't do this),I've raised turtles for three or four years and I'm a master.,By the way, remind you that when your turtle hibernates in the future.,Bury it in the sand.,Pour some water every week.,It won't die.,I hope my answer will be useful to you.,Give some reward points.,Thank you! (My question is short, unlike the long essay above, it's annoying to read, and it's easy to understand!) )

In fact, turtles are very easy to raise, just buy some turtle food, use stones as the bottom, who doesn't need too much, after all, turtles can go ashore to breathe.
Raise turtles, look at the size of the fish tank, you need to be diligent in summer to return the water, bathe the turtles, the turtles eat less in winter, you can feed them once or twice a week, and you will eat it every day in the summer, the turtle has the meaning of health and longevity, and you must take care of it carefully. >>>More
My Brazilian tortoise didn't eat much when it first came, and now it came to my house a year ago (the temperature in our Chongqing is not low), and it has been sleeping Later I found out that it was really hibernating!! >>>More

There are usually several reasons why the tortoise shell becomes softer. One is nutrient deficiencies (lack of calcium or vitamins), the other is lack of light, and a few turtles have softened their shells due to long-term immersion in water. >>>More
