Is turtle. Pig-nosed turtles are aquatic turtles that like to swim. Normally, in addition to laying eggs, the tortoise lives in the water all year round and is a highly aquatic reptile. They are omnivorous animals with a wide range of feeding habits. But young pig-nosed turtles prefer to eat meat and eat more. Therefore, when breeding them, we should pay attention to feeding them more meat when they are young to ensure the nutrition they need for normal growth and development.
They like warmth and fear cold, and the most suitable water temperature for their life is 26 to 28 degrees Celsius. They are timid and frightened, and they are afraid of bright light and like dark light. Therefore, the breeding tank should be placed in a dark and quiet place. They are ferocious by nature and have the habit of biting and fighting. Individuals of similar size often bite and chase each other in artificial breeding, resulting in incomplete rear edge of their carapace and tail, and some turtles even have exposed tail vertebrae.
? The pig-nosed turtle tank should be at least 40 cm X 30 cm X 30 cm, and there are water inlets and drainage outlets. Because their growth cycle is short and their growth rate is relatively fast, they should choose a larger tank as far as possible. They spend most of their time in the water, and the area of water in the tank is larger. Some heating devices such as heating rods are also arranged in the cylinder, and the water temperature is generally controlled at 26-28 ℃. The water in the jar should be changed frequently, and the turtle that has just entered the jar should change the water more frequently, about once every two days, and one third or one half of the water can be changed each time. After they get used to the new environment, they can change the water once a week.
