of pig-nosed turtles 1. Feeding amount: pig-nosed turtles eat a lot and are greedy. If there is food in the jar, they will eat from morning to night. Therefore, breeders need to feed them regularly and quantitatively to avoid gastrointestinal problems when they eat too much. Young pig-nosed turtles should be fed to 80% full each time, and they can only be fed to 70% full when they are adults.

2. Feeding frequency: The feeding frequency of pig-nosed turtles depends on their size. Young pig-nosed turtles have a strong digestive capacity and need highly nutritious food. Breeders need to feed them twice a day to ensure that they are well nourished. Adult pig-nosed turtles can be fed once every 1-2 days, or once every 3 days if the feeding situation is not good.

3. Choice of food: Pig-nosed turtles of different ages like different foods. For example, young pig-nosed turtles like animal feed best. Breeders can feed them more small fish, shrimps, red worms, mealworms, lean meat and animal viscera, but they also need to feed some vegetables and fruits regularly to ensure balanced nutrition. Adult pig-nosed turtles can be fed more plant feed, such as cabbage, celery, lettuce, apples, bananas, watermelons and so on.

2. Pig-nosed turtle breeding skills

1. Water quality: Pig-nosed turtles have higher requirements for water quality. They like weak alkaline water quality. Breeders can use coral sand to adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the water. They also need to regularly detect the PH value of the water to facilitate timely adjustment.

2. Water temperature: The pig-nosed turtle likes the water temperature of 26-31 ℃, and the breeder can install a heating rod for constant temperature. When the temperature is high, you can use a fan or ice to cool down.
