? Breeders can usually choose some nutritious turtle food to feed the pig-nosed turtle, because the nutrients in the turtle food are more comprehensive, which can meet most of the nutritional needs of the pig-nosed turtle. We should also feed more lean meat, animal viscera, red worms, mealworms, small fish, shrimps, shellfish and other animal feeds, because the content of protein and fat in these feeds is high, which is the best food to promote the growth and development of pig-nosed turtles.
If more animal feed is fed, the growth rate of pig-nosed turtles will be very fast. But in order to make the pig-nosed turtle grow fast and well, it also needs to be fed with some vegetables and fruits, so as to achieve a balanced nutrition. Vegetables and fruits suitable for pig-nosed turtles include celery, cabbage, rape, carrots, apples, watermelons, pears, etc.
should we pay attention to when feeding pig-nosed turtles? Young pig-nosed turtles like meat, and breeders need to feed more animal feed to promote their growth and development. Adult pig-nosed turtles like vegetarian food, and breeders can feed more vegetables and fruits to ensure balanced nutrition. Pig-nosed turtles have a large appetite and are more gluttonous. They can eat all day long. Breeders need to clean up the food residue after they eat, so as to prevent them from overfeeding and reduce water pollution.
