Correct feeding methods of ordinary small turtles

Keep a little turtle and bask in the sun every day. You can feed turtles with turtle food, but don't feed them too much. If you feed it too much at a time, it will easily kill the tortoise.

Turtles need long-term sunshine every day to grow healthily, because turtles are cold-blooded animals. Sunbathing can keep warm, kill some bacteria on their shells and prevent their shells from becoming soft and brittle. Ultraviolet green in sunlight is very important to turtles.

Therefore, when the owner wants the turtle to enjoy the warm sunshine, don't just let it stay in the water and try not to be separated from the glass, because ultraviolet green is easily blocked. If you are afraid of drying out because you have forgotten to take it back for too long, you can set up a semi-water place and let them be completely exposed to the sun or soaked in water.

fodder

The tortoise is eating in the water. When the temperature is lower than 18℃, it will stop eating. When it is lower than 15℃, it will enter hibernation. You will not start eating until the temperature is around 20℃ in March and April next year.

Young turtles can be fed turtle food, but it is recommended to feed it for a long time because turtle food has no nutrition. Can also be used for shrimp and red worms. Small lean meat and fish offal can be cut into small pieces to feed.

It should be noted that turtles must be fed regularly.
