The Brazilian turtle is a type of water turtle, and we usually breed them in a pool, and we give them small stones in the pool to make a shallow bank, so they can play in the shallow bank.
There is also the need to grow some aquatic plants in the pond to give them shade and purify water.
Today Xiaobian for you to introduce the Brazilian turtle feeding.
It does not require much water level, but it also needs reasonable control.
Especially for young turtles, the water level is generally not higher than five centimeters.
Adult turtles can survive as long as the water level is not too deep.
The requirements for water quality of Brazilian turtles are very high. Generally, when cultured artificially, if filters and purifiers are added to the breeding pool, the water can be changed once every half month.
But if not, it’s best to change the water every day, or every three or four days.
Suitable for the growth of the Brazilian turtle temperature is generally between 20 and 30 degrees, in general, we had better control the water temperature between 25 and 30 degrees is appropriate.
It is a strange creature. When it is young, it is a carnivore, while as adults, it prefers to eat food such as fruits and vegetables.
So we choose different kinds of feed for the Brazilian turtle at different times, and at the same time we have to ensure the quality of the feed.
Feeding time and place are generally fixed.
Brazilian turtles generally only hibernate in winter, hibernation time is relatively long, generally in the temperature below 15 degrees, it is likely to enter the hibernation state.
Feed should not be fed to just one food, this can cause malnutrition, so change regularly, but not so often as to cause discomfort.
To prevent the turtles from escaping, the walls of the breeding pond are usually made smooth, so that they can hardly climb up.
Secondly, you can cover a layer of breeding net above the breeding pond, which is also a good measure to prevent escape.
We all know that tortoises generally live a long time and rarely get sick, so prevention is the main thing to do.
First of all, it is to strengthen the amount of exercise of the Brazilian turtle, enhance the physique, and then every week can be appropriate for some vitamins, there is frequently changing water, etc., these can play the effect of disease prevention.
