to feed the Brazilian tortoise? In general, the amount of food fed to the Brazilian tortoise only accounts for 5% of the body weight. For adult turtles, the amount of food fed is 5%, but for young turtles, it must be more than 5%, otherwise they can easily lead to malnutrition because they can not keep up with nutrition. Usually, most turtles eat more and excrete more during their growing period, so the amount of food they feed needs to be about 10% of their body weight to ensure their normal metabolism and adequate nutrition. In the daily feeding of Brazilian tortoises, the feeding principle of eating less and more meals can be adopted, which can not only reduce the waste of food, but also effectively prevent them from eating.
will happen if the Brazilian tortoise eats too much? If the Brazilian tortoise eats too much, it will not eat any more. Some tortoises eat too much, they will not like to move very much, and they will look listless. It is believed that many people who have raised Brazilian tortoises have encountered this situation. Obviously, they have food around them, but they just don't eat it. At this time, they may have held on. Most of the time, when they hold up, they will stay quietly in the turtle tank and digest slowly, and some will not eat for several days. If you find that the Brazilian tortoise does not eat and does not like to move, you can first observe whether it is because of eating too much, if it is because of eating too much, then feed it in a few days.
