are terrapins, which usually sleep at night, so their rest time is the same as that of human beings. Brazilian tortoises usually sleep 4-7 hours a day, but because of different environments, they rest for different times. If the surroundings are noisy, they will not go into a resting state, and if the surroundings are quiet, they may also sleep during the day.
Brazilian tortoises need to sleep at least 3-4 hours a day to keep healthy. If they don't rest well for a long time, they will develop slowly. Therefore, it is better for breeders to provide them with a quiet environment and ensure that they sleep for about 7 hours a day.
when they sleep? Brazilian tortoises need to turn off the lights when they sleep. Although they sleep with their eyes closed, the eyes of Brazilian tortoises are protruding outward, which is very easy to infect bacteria. Long-term strong light can easily cause eye diseases. And they are sensitive to bright light, and it's hard for them to fall into a deep sleep if they're on all the time. The Brazilian tortoise will sleep in the water, so the water level must not be too high to ensure that the Brazilian tortoise can breathe fresh air as soon as it stretches its head.
