How often does the little turtle eat?

When the temperature is above 24℃, 1-2 days can be fed 1-2 times, and the food intake of a turtle is about 1 of the turtle's volume. When the water temperature is 20-24 degrees, feed 1 time within 2-3 days of 65438+.

When the amount of food is selected according to the size of the turtle, the turtle below 3 cm only needs 5 young turtle food, 3-5 cm, 5 -8 small turtle food and 5-8 medium turtle food every day. For the turtle with 5 cm-8 cm, the turtle above 8 cm can generally be fed according to personal feeling or according to the size of 10. Compared with other turtles, snapping turtles have a larger food intake, stronger digestion and faster metabolism in the body than many turtles, so snapping turtles grow faster, but the leftover bait that can't be eaten should be cleaned up in time to keep the water dry.

Precautions for raising turtles:

1, according to the size of the turtle, choose its suitable size of food, such as young turtles, young turtles, fish, shrimp, etc. It can be ground with a meat grinder, and then mixed with the fishmeal feed for feeding. Subadult and adult soft-shelled turtles can directly process fish meat and shrimp meat into lump feed suitable for their mouth size, and the big fishbone in fish meat should be removed to avoid damaging the esophagus of soft-shelled turtles, thus causing harm to soft-shelled turtles.

2. Different foods should have different processing methods. For example, snails should be crushed and fed. Usually, a variety of vitamins and calcium additives can be properly mixed in turtle feed regularly to meet the nutritional and physiological needs of turtle production. When the weather temperature changes greatly, especially when the temperature drops above 3℃, the feeding can be reduced or not, so as not to cause indigestion of soft-shelled turtle.
