1. Adequate space: The body length of crocodile turtles will reach 40-70 cm in adulthood, and their development speed is very fast in their infancy. Breeders need to prepare a larger container for them before they can move normally. It is best to build a balcony in the container, so that they can climb up to rest and bask in the sun. Some more plants can be planted around the balcony to better simulate the native environment.
2. Adequate light: In the process of breeding, it is best to give them proper sunshine, which can effectively promote their growth and development. Moreover, frequent sun exposure can kill bacteria on their carapace, and can also promote the absorption of calcium and vitamins, making their physique stronger.
3. Comfortable environment: Although crocodile turtles have strong adaptability to the environment, if breeders want them to grow faster, they must ensure that their living environment is suitable. Usually, it is necessary to keep the water temperature above 20 ℃. If conditions permit, the water temperature can be controlled at 25 ℃. They don't have too high requirements for water quality, and breeders only need to ensure that the water quality is clean. When changing water, tap water needs to be dried for several days before use.
2. What does the crocodile turtle eat grows fastIn order to make the crocodile turtle grow fast, besides ensuring comfortable environment, feeding is also a key factor. Breeders can choose animal feed as their staple food, because this feed is rich in nutrients and is very suitable for feeding crocodile turtles. The animal feed suitable for crocodile turtles is small fish, shrimp, lean meat, animal viscera, red worms and so on. In addition, breeders can match a vegetable and fruit to ensure balanced nutrition.
