If you find that the grass turtle does not go to the drying table, you should first find out the reason why they do not go to the drying table, and then deal with it. If they don't move much and are sleepy most of the time, they may be sick and need to be treated in time. If the temperature on the drying table is too low or too high, it will also cause the grass turtle not to go to the drying table. At this time, it is necessary to adjust the temperature of the drying table to the range of 25-30 C. Another possibility is that the setting of the balcony is not reasonable, so that they can not climb up. At this time, they should reset the drying table according to their habits and reduce the height of the drying table appropriately.

of the sun to the grass turtle, the sun can make the grass turtle absorb calcium more thoroughly. It is believed that people who have raised tortoises have seen tortoises drying their backs, basically once a day, usually for two to three hours. Exposure to the sun not only allows their bodies to better absorb calcium, but also reduces the growth of bacteria on their shells, reducing their risk of disease to a certain extent. In addition, proper lighting will make their back shell more colorful.

Although basking in the sun has many benefits for them, the time of basking in the sun every day should not be too long, let alone expose them to the sun when the light is particularly strong, otherwise it will easily lead to their death.
