? Generally, the grass turtle will eat above 15 degrees Celsius. The suitable temperature range for them is 23-30 ℃, in which their growth rate is relatively fast. Because of different species, the suitable temperature of some turtles will be slightly different, but basically in the range of 20-30 C.
They mainly breathe with their lungs and go into hibernation when the temperature is below 15 degrees Celsius. When the temperature is higher than 35 C, their appetite will also decrease, and some will not even eat. So if you want them to grow better, you have to control the temperature.
the grass turtle eat? The grass turtle is not picky about food, and the amount of food is relatively moderate. Live bait and all kinds of fresh vegetables are their favorite foods. When they are in the juvenile stage, their growth and development are relatively fast, and their demand for nutrition and energy is particularly large, so they are mainly fed with animal food. Small fish, shrimps, tubificidae and other live baits can be used to feed them. Fresh live baits are rich in protein and other nutrients, which can meet the nutritional needs of grass turtles in their infancy. After five years of feeding, the grass turtles will enter the mature period, at which time they can be fed directly to eat turtle food. However, in order to increase nutrition, breeders still need to feed some live bait. You can't just feed the turtles food, or it will cause them to be anorexic.
