the sun? Although they live in deep water, not basking in the sun will not affect their normal development, but more basking in the sun will help their physical development, and basking in the sun will also strengthen their resistance. Therefore, it is better for families to raise snapping turtles to bask in the sun regularly. If the container for raising snapping turtles is large, you can build a drying platform for snapping turtles to climb out and bask in the sun by themselves. If the container is small, the crocodile turtle can be fished out or installed with a sunning lamp, which only needs to be turned on 2-3 times a week.
the crocodile tortoise bask in the sun? The time for the crocodile tortoise to bask in the sun should not be too long. In spring and autumn, the crocodile tortoise basks in the sun 2-3 times a week, about 1 hour each time. In summer, it can be dried twice a week for 30 minutes each time. The best time to bask in the sun for snapping turtles is in the early morning or evening, because the sun is not strong at this time, which will not affect snapping turtles. Snapping turtles should be put into the water after basking in the sun, because they will be dehydrated if they leave the water for a long time. If you use a sunning lamp, you also need to build a sunning platform, and then put the snapping turtle on the sunning platform for irradiation. The time to turn on the backlight can refer to the time to bask in natural light.
