What does the grass turtle eat and what are the principles of feeding?

1. What do grass turtles eat? Gr

ass turtles are omnivorous turtles. They can eat a lot of things. For example, poultry meat, small fish, shrimp and other meat, spinach, lettuce and other vegetarian food, as well as turtle feed. Meat contains a lot of protein and tastes good, so it is very popular with them. Vegetarian diet is rich in cellulose and vitamins, but they do not like to eat, can be fed to supplement vitamins. Turtle feed is also rich in nutrients, but it belongs to dry material, the taste is not particularly good, they do not like to eat.

In normal feeding, if you want the grass turtles to grow better, you should not only feed them meat, but also feed them with meat and vegetables. In this way, they can have balanced nutrition and grow better. For busy breeders, they can be fed with turtle feed when there is no time.

2. What are the principles

of feeding grass turtles? When feeding grass turtles, we should first look at their growth status. If you are a juvenile grass turtle, you need to feed more, and you can't feed too much at a time. This is because young grass turtles are in a state of growth and need more energy. If they are fed too little, their growth and development will be affected. But can not feed too much, because at this time their intestines and stomach are relatively weak, if they feed too much at one time, it will affect and hurt them. In daily feeding, the principle of eating less and more meals is generally adopted. The

adult tortoises, whose bodies are fully developed, only need to be fed enough food to live on each time. Generally, the principle of eating more and less meals is adopted, feeding once every three days.
