2. How to raise the crocodile turtle when it is just bought homeAlthough the crocodile turtle is fierce in character, it will be uneasy and fearful when it changes to a new environment. If it is a small crocodile turtle that has just been bought home, the breeder should first keep the surrounding environment quiet and not let them be frightened. Secondly, we should ensure that their living environment is comfortable. Finally, interact with them more, which can speed up their familiarity with the environment.
In addition, the newly bought crocodile turtles do not need to be fed immediately, so it is best to wait for them to adapt to the new environment before trying to feed them. If they don't eat, they can wait a little longer.
