1. Container: Small snapping turtles grow and develop faster, and they are larger in size when they are adults. Breeders had better prepare a large container for them, so as to ensure sufficient space for their activities.
2. Water temperature: The temperature in the origin of crocodile turtle is relatively high, so breeders need to keep the water temperature at about 25 ℃. If conditions permit, they can use heating rods to keep the water temperature constant.
3. Water quality: The requirements of small crocodile turtles on water quality are not very good. Breeders only need to change water 1-2 times a week to ensure that the raised water quality is clean and refreshing.
4. Sunbathing: Although small crocodile turtles don't often bask in the sun when they survive in the wild, it is best to give them regular sunbathing in artificial breeding, which can not only kill bacteria on their carapace, but also promote their absorption of calcium and other trace elements.
2. How to feed small crocodile turtlesSmall crocodile turtles prefer animal feed, and breeders can feed them more small fish, shrimp, red worms, beef, chicken, snails, snails and other foods. Young snapping turtles need to be fed a small amount of times, preferably 1-2 times a day, to ensure that they have adequate food and nutrition. In addition to animal feed, breeders should also match some plant feed, such as cabbage, rape, apples, bananas, etc., to ensure their balanced nutrition. Adult crocodile turtles don't need to be fed too often, just 2-3 times a week, but the amount of each feeding needs to be larger.
