How do turtles spend the winter?

Turtles hibernate in winter, so long as they are well maintained after hibernation, they will not die.

Precautions for raising turtles in winter:

1. Turtles are amphibians. If you put it in a pure pool that is not connected with land, you should put stones, bricks and other platforms above the water surface in the pool for turtles to bask in the sun and rest. Turtles like to hide in holes. You can build a turtle nest with bricks to improve the turtle's sense of security.

2. Turtles eat mostly in the water, and sometimes they eat on the shore. Food can be directly thrown into the water, or it can be placed in the shallow water area or near the water slope at the intersection of land and water. When feeding shrimp, you should feed it with the shell, which can supplement calcium, but you should cut off the spikes on the shrimp head.

Turtles like to eat meat and fishy food. Little turtles mainly eat meat. When they grow up, they can eat vegetarian food. Generally, small fish, shrimp, earthworm, loach, animal viscera, snails, crickets, a small amount of red meat, bananas, melon skin and so on can be fed.

4. Don't feed when the temperature is below 20 degrees, otherwise it will easily cause gastrointestinal diseases such as indigestion. The optimum temperature for soft-shelled turtle is 25~30℃, when it grows fastest.

The bigger the turtle, the less times it is fed, and the smaller the turtle, the more times it is fed. Generally, young turtles are fed three times a day, young turtles are fed/kloc-0 times a day, and adult turtles are generally fed once every two to three days. During the spawning season, the mother turtle should be fed more, and before hibernation, nutritious food should be fed more.
