Brazilian tortoises should pay attention to the frequency of feeding. In infancy, Brazilian tortoises need to be fed twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Because young Brazilian tortoises need adequate nutrition to grow and develop, the frequency of feeding is slightly higher, but the amount and frequency of feeding are closely related to the size of the tortoise.
If the Brazilian tortoise is small, with a body length of no more than 3 centimeters, it will grow very fast. When feeding, we must pay attention to supplementing them with nutrition as much as possible to avoid their malnutrition leading to incomplete development. When they grow up to about 5 centimeters in length, they can be fed once a day, but the amount of feeding should be increased appropriately. When the tortoise is an adult, it can be fed once a day or once every two days, and the amount of feeding should be increased appropriately each time.
food does the Brazilian tortoise feed each time? The Brazilian tortoise is an omnivorous animal and is not picky about food. The amount of food it feeds each time is roughly the size of its head. When feeding, you can feed some small fish, shrimp, mealworms and so on. But this kind of food is easy to carry germs and cause turtles to get sick, so we should pay attention to sterilization and disinfection before feeding. You can also feed some meat food. When feeding, you should cut the meat into small pieces and then disinfect it. It can also be accompanied by some vegetables or cereals. It is necessary to ensure that the bait is reasonable and nutritious, so that feeding is also conducive to the growth and development of Brazilian tortoises.
