1. Container: To raise the crocodile turtle well, the living environment is very important. The size of the crocodile turtle is large, so the container should be large enough. A basking table is placed in the container so that the crocodile turtle can bask and rest on it. Some water plants, sand and gravel can be placed around the drying table to maintain a good ecological environment.
2. Feeding: The Buddha crocodile turtle is an omnivorous turtle. They can eat a lot of food. Can divide roughly: Animal kind food and plant kind food two kinds big. Animal food has small fish and shrimp, snails, earthworms and so on, you can also feed some fresh lean meat and animal liver. Plant foods include wild fruits, aquatic plants and plant stems and leaves. Before feeding, the food must be disinfected, washed and cut up before feeding, which can be fed every 1-2 days.
3. Water quality: There is a requirement for water quality for breeding crocodile turtles. They need light green water quality for breeding. In addition, regular water exchange is needed to keep the water clean. After feeding, the remaining food should be cleaned up in time so as not to affect the water quality.
4. Water level: The crocodile turtle can be regarded as a deep water turtle, but the water level does not need to be too deep for artificial breeding. Alligator turtles can swim up to 10 centimeters above their carapace or about three times the height of their carapace, just make sure their heads are out of the water and breathing smoothly.
5. Sunning: In addition, in the process of breeding, it is best to properly let the crocodile turtles bask in the sun. You can let them climb to the sunning table to bask in the sun. Be careful that the light is not too strong.
When breeding the crocodile turtle, it is very important to maintain the appropriate water temperature, because the water temperature directly affects the health and rapid growth of the crocodile turtle. The water temperature of 25-28 degrees is the most suitable for the growth of the crocodile turtle. If the water temperature is too low in winter, you can put a heating rod in the water to heat it properly. However, it can also be heated without a heating rod, so that the Buddha crocodile turtle can enter the hibernation state freely.
