can the pig-nosed turtle leave the water? The pig-nosed turtle can leave the water for 1-2 days. If the breeder can provide them with a moist environment after leaving the water, then wrap their bodies with wet towels, and provide them with enough water, then they can last a little longer. But if the weather is hot and the sun is strong, they will dehydrate faster, and they will die within a day at most. Pig-nosed turtles are aquatic turtles. Except for laying eggs, they basically do not leave the water. If they are left in a state of dehydration for a long time, they will suffer from discomfort and die over time.
family breeding, it is better to use deeper water to raise pig-nosed turtles, and the water level can be controlled between 0.5 and 1 meters. When the pig-nosed turtle is in the wild, it lives in a water depth of 6 feet, or about 1.8 meters. If conditions permit, it can also be raised in deeper water. Because if the water is too shallow, it will affect their growth and development, leading to their dysplasia and so on. The adult size of pig-nosed turtles can reach 45-50 centimeters. If they are raised alone, they can choose a vat of about 1 meter. If you want to raise more than one, you need to decide the size of the container according to their size and number.
