Before breeding snapping turtles, you need to prepare certain tools. In addition to the necessary containers, there are tables that need to be prepared and placed in the containers. Placing a tanning table in a container is very convenient and has many benefits. First of all, snapping turtles can climb up to bask in the sun. Proper sunshine is very helpful to the growth and development of crocodile turtles, promoting the absorption of various nutrients, especially vitamins, in addition to improving their immunity and so on, the benefits are very many.
In addition to providing a platform for snapping turtles to bask in the sun, the sunning table can also be used for snapping turtles to climb up to rest and breathe. In addition, if crocodile turtles stay in the water for a long time, their health container problems, such as they may get "skin disease", "rotten nail disease" and other diseases, and the sunning table can let them climb up irregularly, then these diseases can be effectively avoided.
In the process of breeding snapping turtles, they can be allowed to bask in the sun regularly. However, it is not necessary to bask in the sun every day, and the requirements of snapping turtles for basking in the sun are not so high. Generally speaking, two or three times a week are OK, which can basically meet their healthy growth needs. In addition, the time of basking in the sun does not need to be too long, generally speaking, half an hour or an hour is enough. Moreover, the light should not be too strong to avoid direct light at noon. If you don't want to use natural light, you can also use backlight, the same time in an hour or so, if the light is relatively mild, it can be two hours.
