. The water level of the grass tortoise is more than 1 centimeter of the body. If they are a kind of terrapin, they are not suitable for living in deep water. If they are a kind of semi-terrapin, they are relatively good at swimming. So we usually say that they are a kind of turtle between the terrapin and the semi-terrapin.
In daily breeding, if they are kept in deep water, the better grass turtles generally have no problem, but the weaker ones will not be able to climb up, resulting in drowning. If they are kept in a dry place, they will feel uncomfortable and cause some harm to their health. If the breeder wants to keep them in deep water, it is better to build a platform for them in the water to help them climb ashore.
for grass turtles? Grass turtles are freshwater turtles. There are many kinds of water suitable for their life, such as river and lake water, tap water and rainwater. The most suitable water for their growth is river and lake water, but the most suitable water for breeders is tap water. This is mainly because the water transportation of rivers and lakes is relatively difficult and the cost is relatively high. However, tap water completely overcomes this shortcoming, and tap water is relatively clean after artificial sterilization and disinfection. However, if tap water is used, it needs to be exposed to the sun in advance to remove chlorine before use.
