The tortoise doesn't eat. Slow movement means it will hibernate. If my answer satisfies the landlord, please choose my answer. Thank you ... turtles can hibernate. But the temperature should not be lower than 0 degrees. The following is information about the hibernation of Brazilian tortoise. Because Brazilian turtles are water turtles, they usually hibernate only in winter. Generally speaking, when the water temperature is below 20 degrees, the Brazilian tortoise begins to stop eating. When the water temperature is lower than 1 1 degree, it enters shallow hibernation; When the water temperature is below 6 degrees, the Brazilian tortoise begins to go into deep hibernation. When the water temperature is below 5 degrees for a long time, the Brazilian tortoise is in danger of freezing to death. Many turtle friends want to keep them in winter, which requires some experience. This is especially true for new turtle friends. In winter, due to the temperature difference between room temperature and water temperature, Brazilian tortoises easily get pneumonia and die. Therefore, if conditions permit, the Brazilian tortoise should be allowed to hibernate, which is also in line with its natural laws. Brazilian tortoises can stay dry for the winter when they are adults, but they also need to soak in water once a week or so. Brazilian adults can hibernate with wet cloth. Before hibernation, when the water temperature reaches 22℃, human antibiotics are mixed into the feed to enhance the disease resistance of soft-shelled turtle. When the water temperature drops to 14℃, the activity of soft-shelled turtles decreases, most soft-shelled turtles sink to the bottom and stop eating, and a few soft-shelled turtles only eat a small amount. At this time, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the pond and check the soft-shelled turtle, including skin, head, feces and parasites. Unhealthy turtles can't hibernate, so they should be raised separately. The water temperature should be raised above 20℃ before they can eat, and corresponding treatment measures should be taken. In hibernation, occasionally when the water temperature rises above 16℃, the tortoise will wake up and move. Don't feed it at this time, in case the temperature drops at night, leading to indigestion and other diseases. During hibernation, some abnormal turtles, such as floating on the water and weak limbs, should be fished out in time and kept in isolation. After hibernation, with the increase of temperature, the water temperature reached about 18℃, and some turtles were able to eat. At this time, it is not appropriate to feed in a hurry, and wait until the temperature difference between day and night does not exceed about 6℃. Before feeding at 1 time, it is necessary to thoroughly change the dressing and disinfect. To make the Brazilian tortoise hibernate safely, we must first be prepared correctly. First of all, the digestive tract of the red-eared turtle must be emptied, because the food left in the body will ferment, which will rupture the stomach wall and intestinal wall and lead to death. The following methods can effectively empty food for red-eared turtles. First, stop feeding at least one week (preferably two weeks) before the temperature drops, and soak him in warm water for the last three to four days to help him clean up his feces. It should be noted that if the tortoise is malnourished, haggard, weak and emaciated, don't let it hibernate. Usually, such a turtle will not store the necessary fat to maintain this period of inactivity. When the "fuel" is exhausted, it will die unfortunately. Therefore, breeders should try their best to ensure that their turtles are healthy and eat enough nutrition during the vigorous and active period. Similarly, the newborn turtle should not be allowed to hibernate in the first winter, but should be kept warm and fed constantly. Young turtles are usually too fragile to survive even in a properly controlled environment. It is said that the mortality rate of newborn turtles in the first year is as high as 85%. Because he has no reproductive ability before he is two years old, it is best to keep him warm, continue feeding and keep him active for two years until he has strong physical strength to cope with the cold during hibernation. The real hibernating method is to spread thick wet sand in the container and cover it with newspaper balls. The tortoise will sleep in the sand by itself and replenish water once a week to keep the sand and newspapers moist. Hibernation is a test for raising turtles at home. First of all, you should make sure that your baby is healthy and free from diseases. Tortoise with poor constitution must not hibernate. Little turtle suggests not to hibernate, winter is very sad! You can prepare some sand for the hibernating turtle, but if it can't climb in, don't bury it by force. Soft-shelled turtles that don't hibernate in the sand can be placed in shallow water and covered with a layer of wet cotton yarn to keep them moist, which also has a certain heat preservation effect. Turtles who hibernate in the sand should make sure that the sand is clean and pollution-free. Keep the sand moist during the hibernation of turtles. The tortoise may wake up during hibernation, so make sure it doesn't climb where you can't find it after waking up. In addition, turtles who wake up from hibernation must not be fed. When the temperature drops below 13℃, it begins to hibernate. Throughout the wintering period, the head, tail and limbs retract into the shell, close your eyes, and do not eat, move or excrete until they emerge from the sting. If the environment does not adapt, it is difficult to enter a dormant state. The hibernation temperature of turtles is 1- 10℃. Above 10℃, it is easy to wake the turtle, which will consume physical strength and lead to the decline of the turtle's physique, which is not conducive to the growth and reproduction in the coming year. Repeated hibernation and awakening during hibernation can also lead to the death of turtles. Temperatures below 0℃ will frostbite turtles and even freeze to death. Therefore, the possible temperature change factors must be considered when setting the hibernation place of turtles artificially. The turtle's activity changes with the change of environmental temperature. The optimum temperature is 20 ~ 32℃, 1 1℃, and deep hibernation is below 6℃. I suggest you do 1 and don't let it hibernate: not all Brazilian turtles hibernate, right? If the weather is cold, they will hibernate, right? Is it okay not to hibernate? I gave him a heating stick to prevent him from hibernating. A professional website says that newborn turtles should not hibernate in the first winter, keep warm and keep feeding. Young turtles are usually too fragile to survive even in a properly controlled environment. It is said that the mortality rate of newborn glans penis is as high as 85% a year. Because he has no reproductive ability before he is two years old, it is best to keep him warm, continue to feed him and let him be active for two years until he has strong physical strength to cope with hibernation. Yo, that sounds a little scary. What should I do if the electric heating rod leaks? Moreover, how to discharge a hot rod in a small basin is not realistic. Let's prepare it for hibernation. 2, river sand method: spread a layer of river sand about 6 cm thick, and then adjust the water to just be absorbed by the sand, the sand is wet, for turtles to eat, will not dry, suitable for hibernation, and then you can cover it with some old newspapers to make a ball, which can sleep for turtles. It is also said that there is wet soil to cover the little turtle. But it feels so dirty, and should I go to the construction site to steal sand for it? Or digging mud downstairs? Hehe, forget it. 3. Electric blanket method: buy a waterproof electric blanket line, a dimmer switch and a plug. According to the size of the fish tank, find a suitable wire mold, which can be rod-shaped or ring-shaped, and evenly wind the electric blanket wire on the wire mold. The ends of the two wires are respectively connected to one wire of the plug and the other wire of the dimmer switch. One wire of the dimmer switch is connected to the other wire of the plug, and the joint is wrapped with insulating tape. Is that the dimmer switch and the electric blanket are connected in series! It's done. Remember, the electric blanket wire and the wire connector can't touch the water! Otherwise, the electric shock is none of my business! I put the heater in the basin and the fish tank in the basin to heat the water in the basin. The dimmer switch is placed in two thirds of the place, which is exactly 25 degrees. Room temperature varies from place to place. Anyway, it is infinitely adjustable. Adjust it yourself! Ha ha! That sounds complicated. Isn't this a dangerous operation? In case it leaks, the little turtle will be cooked; Oh, cake seller, let's not do this! 4, straw method: give it a nest, covered with straw, chicken feathers and so on. I have the conditions to tell it the story of "the tortoise and the rabbit race". Hehe, this one is stronger, so it looks a bit like a hatched chicken. Where can I find straws? Maybe my 7-up doesn't like this story? And the chicken feathers are so dirty, maybe 7-up will hate it. 5, cotton yarn method: it is best to move them indoors and put them in a clean plastic basin. There is no need to drain the water in the basin. Cover the turtle with some wet grass or wet towel or wet cotton yarn. Usually pay attention to spray some water to keep humidity, and you can spend the winter safely. This method seems to be more practical and feasible, and seems to be feasible. 6, shallow water method: Brazilian tortoise is too good, don't worry. Soak it in shallow water and drown it in the shell. If you are afraid of them being frightened, you'd better cover them with something. I don't have cotton yarn, so I can use old cotton underwear to spread it, spread a layer of white towel on it, soak it in a little warm water, put the turtle on it, and then cover it with a newspaper ball. Ok, let's observe and see if it can adapt to this arrangement. Tortoise feeding: Due to different regions, the temperature and light are different. Sooner or later, the tortoise will have to eat. Want the turtle to eat as soon as possible: First, raise the water temperature. Generally, when the water temperature is above 15 degrees, turtles will gradually start eating. The higher the temperature, the earlier the tortoise eats. Second, increasing light can increase the appetite of soft-shelled turtles, supplement calcium for soft-shelled turtles, and sterilize and prevent diseases through sunlight and ultraviolet rays. Therefore, increasing the light time can increase the turtle's appetite and let the turtle eat as soon as possible. If the tortoise is short of light for a long time, it will stay in a place without light, and may not eat until May. The tortoise will lose its appetite and stop eating. It is usually eaten at the beginning of April every year. Sooner or later, turtles will eat according to temperature and light. The higher the temperature, the longer the illumination time, and the earlier the tortoise eats. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the light, which is my experience in raising turtles 10 for many years. Attention should be paid to breeding Brazilian turtles in spring: in spring, Brazilian turtles begin to enter the growth period after a long hibernation period. During this period, we should pay attention to: first, let the Brazilian tortoise bask in the sun as much as possible, which will help the tortoise increase its appetite; And use sunlight and ultraviolet rays to sterilize, reduce diseases and achieve prevention first; Increasing the light can also add calcium to the turtle, and the color of the turtle will be more vivid. Second, feed nutritious food, such as raw fish, shrimp, screws, earthworms, insects, worms, lean meat and other foods. Don't feed indigestible foods such as cooked lean meat and fat meat, or the tortoise will get sick. Try to let the tortoise eat more during the growing period and let the tortoise grow faster. The third is to keep the turtle tank clean and sanitary, and change water frequently. The following are the precautions for turtles to hibernate. Please have a look: before hibernation, put a fat meat on the turtles. Starting from September, let the soft-shelled turtle eat two full meals a day for a month and store enough wintering fat. By June 5438+00, the tortoise stopped eating. Soak the soft-shelled turtle in lukewarm water, stimulate the soft-shelled turtle to defecate with warm water, clean the intestines, and discharge the residual feces in the body to avoid causing intestinal diseases for a long time. If the turtle stops eating for half a year, it will live on these fats. If the soft-shelled turtle is too thin or in poor eating condition, or too small, heat it for the winter, adjust the temperature to 28 degrees, and the soft-shelled turtle will eat normally. The real hibernating method is to spread thick wet sand in the container and cover it with newspaper balls. The tortoise will sleep in the sand by itself and replenish water once a week to keep the sand and newspapers moist. Hibernation is a test for raising turtles at home. First of all, you should make sure that your baby is healthy and free from diseases. Tortoise with poor constitution must not hibernate. Little turtle suggests not to hibernate, winter is very sad! You can prepare some sand for the hibernating turtle, but if it can't climb in, don't bury it by force. Soft-shelled turtles that don't hibernate in the sand can be placed in shallow water and covered with a layer of wet cotton yarn to keep them moist, which also has a certain heat preservation effect. Turtles who hibernate in the sand should make sure that the sand is clean and pollution-free. Keep the sand moist during the hibernation of turtles. The tortoise may wake up during hibernation, so make sure it doesn't climb where you can't find it after waking up. In addition, turtles who wake up from hibernation must not be fed. When the temperature drops below 13℃, it begins to hibernate. Throughout the wintering period, the head, tail and limbs retract into the shell, close your eyes, and do not eat, move or excrete until they emerge from the sting. If the environment does not adapt, it is difficult to enter a dormant state. The hibernation temperature of turtles is 1- 10℃. Above 10℃, it is easy to wake the turtle, which will consume physical strength and lead to the decline of the turtle's physique, which is not conducive to the growth and reproduction in the coming year. Repeated hibernation and awakening during hibernation can also lead to the death of turtles. Temperatures below 0℃ will frostbite turtles and even freeze to death. Therefore, the possible temperature change factors must be considered when setting the hibernation place of turtles artificially.
Turtle hibernation should start at different times according to different climates. When the temperature is lower than 12 degrees, they begin to hibernate. In the north, it will probably end at 10 and start in March next year. First of all, put a fat meat on the turtle before hibernation, so I won't elaborate on this. Just to remind you, the digestive tract must be emptied before the turtle hibernates, because the food left in the body will ferment, which will rupture the stomach wall and intestinal wall and lead to death. The method of emptying is to stop feeding at least one week (preferably two weeks) before the temperature officially drops, and soak him in warm water for the last three to four days, which will help him remove feces. Hibernation care varies from turtle to turtle. Here are some suggestions. Turtles are in the wild. Turtles usually dig a hole to hide themselves in it, or find some other hiding places. For domestic turtles, we can prepare a box for them, cover them with a pile of fallen leaves, or knead newspapers. If the turtle's native climate is humid and its breeding environment is dry in winter, we need to sprinkle some water on it every few days to maintain a certain humidity, but don't let them drown. During the hibernation of turtles, we need to check them irregularly, touch their legs, and they should respond. If they wake up from hibernation when the temperature is still low, we should take some measures to encourage them to continue hibernation, such as covering newspapers or sand again. At present, most of the turtles we see can't fall below 5℃ during hibernation, otherwise they will freeze to death. They can also be raised by heating to prevent them from hibernating. However, the frequency and quantity of their eating in winter will be reduced to some extent. When the weather gets warmer in March and April, the hibernating turtles will start to move. At this time, the first thing to do is to give the turtles who have slept for several months a warm bath, so that they can drink water for a long time to replenish the water lost during hibernation. In a week or two, they will start eating, exercising and sunbathing again. Wild turtles usually dive into the mud at the bottom of the water or hibernate under rocks or fallen leaves on the shore. There are several hibernation measures for domestic water turtles: 1. Bury them in wet sand, and pay attention to ensure the high humidity of the sand. 2. Cover their bodies with wet gauze. 3. Put them in shallow water (this method is not recommended for semi-aquatic turtles like yellow-edged box turtles). Put them in a wooden box and cover them with wet straw. Hibernating turtles should also be checked regularly. Don't let weak turtles or sick turtles hibernate, they don't have enough fat to consume during hibernation. Stop feeding one week before hibernation and soak in warm water, otherwise food and feces will accumulate in the body during hibernation, which will easily cause gastroenteritis. Be sure to keep high humidity, or you will die of lack of water. The ambient temperature during hibernation should not drop below 5℃, otherwise it will freeze to death. They can also be raised by heating to prevent them from hibernating. However, the frequency and quantity of their eating in winter will be reduced to some extent. But for some species of closed-shell turtles, the process of not hibernating may be fatal, and they must hibernate. It should be noted that if the tortoise is malnourished, haggard, weak and emaciated, don't let it hibernate. Usually, such a turtle will not store the necessary fat to maintain this period of inactivity. When the "fuel" is exhausted, it will die unfortunately. Therefore, breeders should try their best to ensure that their turtles are healthy and eat enough nutrition during the vigorous and active period. Problems that should be paid attention to after hibernation: When the hibernation period is coming to an end, the breeder can "wake up" the hibernating turtle. The breeder should pay attention not to simply move the hibernating turtle to a warm place for convenience, which will cause sudden death or other diseases of the turtle. Therefore, it is necessary to gradually increase the environmental temperature of hibernating turtles, so that turtles have a gradual adaptation process. This process will last for about a week, so don't rush for success! In addition, the breeder should not be surprised if the turtle just woke up from hibernation has no interest in food and refuses to eat. Like many people who just woke up from hibernation, turtles also feel dizzy and need some time to adjust, but turtles need much more adjustment time than people, about 1-2 days, or longer. Many turtles who have just woken up from hibernation look skinny or malnourished, which is normal according to the usual situation. At this time, the breeder needs some patience. The previous feeds should be small and refined, and appropriate nutritional drugs and antibiotics should be mixed into the feed. Gradually increase the feeding amount, and after a period of time, feed the turtle according to its maximum food intake, so that the turtle can recover as soon as possible. When the temperature drops below 13℃, it begins to hibernate. Throughout the wintering period, the head, tail and limbs retract into the shell, close your eyes, and do not eat, move or excrete until they emerge from the sting. If the environment does not adapt, it is difficult to enter a dormant state. The hibernation temperature of turtles is 1- 10℃. Above 10℃, it is easy to wake the turtle, which will consume physical strength and lead to the decline of the turtle's physique, which is not conducive to the growth and reproduction in the coming year. Repeated hibernation and awakening during hibernation can also lead to the death of turtles. Temperatures below 0℃ will frostbite turtles and even freeze to death. Therefore, the possible temperature changes must be considered when setting the hibernation place for turtles artificially. I don't eat until the end of hibernation in late March and early April. Turtles are omnivores, and young people love meat. Can feed small fish, shrimp, pig liver, red worms, cockroaches and so on. Turtles usually eat in the water. Turtles love vegetarianism when they are old. They will eat aquatic plants. You can feed some vegetables. Too lazy to fiddle with those messy things, just buy a box of turtle food and eat it slowly. High-quality soft-shelled turtle food is rich in calcium, protein, fiber, fat, vitamins A, B 12, C, D3, E, and it is nutritious, so it is definitely not very delicious. Turtles must think so, too. Feeding in moderation, the turtle's digestive system is not very good. The tortoise is too small to feed too big shrimp, etc. Chop it up. When they finished eating, they fished out the leftover food. After the thunder in spring, they began to eat. Water covers the crustaceans by 0.5CM, and when the temperature stabilizes (15-20), they will eat them, because they hibernate in winter. Some of them don't sleep, but their throats are sealed. They will eat it when it is over 20 degrees in spring. In winter, turtles like to bask in the sun outside because the water is too cold. Give him the food (preferably fresh) and he will eat it himself. Never mind ~ Besides, put the tortoise in a well-lit place, not indoors at night (when it is cold) ~ Keep the temperature ~ The tortoise is a tropical animal ~ When will the hibernation period of the tortoise end? It's hard to say, different places are different. Generally, it depends on the temperature. When the temperature is higher than 20 degrees, the tortoise will eat it. A small pot with a diameter of about 15cm and a depth of about 9cm can be obtained for turtles to eat. Then spread a layer of dry sand on the wet sand with a thickness of about 5-8 mm, and then put the turtle on it. Then cover it with soft cotton cloth, soft mattress and even fur (if anyone has more money). Unable to compact. Compaction is not conducive to ventilation, and secondly it is not conducive to warmth. Thirdly, if warm objects come into contact with the tortoise too closely, they will absorb the water in the tortoise. Then you can put the whole basin behind the refrigerator (where there are fins) or in other warm and humid places indoors (except radiators, stoves and fireplaces, which will kill you). Every week or so, open and check the moisture on the turtle's body surface (skin, not shell). The smaller the turtle, the shorter the cycle should be. According to the difference of relative humidity in different places, the turtle owner adjusts it by himself. If there are signs of dryness (the most obvious indicator is whether the tortoise can easily open its eyes), remember to hydrate and moisturize. Remember: Never spray cold water or warm water directly on the turtle or throw it directly into the water with obvious temperature difference from the hibernating basin for moisturizing. The sudden change of temperature can easily make your tortoise catch a cold. When moisturizing, take the turtle out, then remove the dry sand on the surface and spray water on the bottom sand. The amount of water can be adjusted according to the dryness of the bottom sand. Cover with dry sand after spraying, or put the turtle away to increase warmth. Next time, put it indoors in a warm and humid place. Generally, around April of the following year, both big turtles and small turtles will wake up from hibernation. You will feel thin, but chinemys reevesii will grow a shell when he hibernates. The shell will fall to the ground in a plastic basin, and you can see that there are many precautions on the edge of the shell: remember that the temperature should not be too high when hibernating, otherwise the tortoise will not hibernate normally, but will consume its physical strength and die easily. Don't bother often. ..
