How long can grass turtles be raised depends on their living environment. If their living environment is humid, they will persist for a longer time, about one month. If they live in a high temperature environment, they can't last long, because the high temperature will quickly evaporate the water in their bodies, so they can last for 1-2 weeks at most. In addition, if grass turtles are kept in sunny places, they will die in no more than one day at most.
Although grass turtles are amphibian tortoises, they cannot live on land for a long time. If breeders want to raise grass turtles dry, they need to spray water once every 3 hours, so as to ensure that their bodies are moist and they can survive normally.
2. Is it better to raise grass turtles dry or in waterIt is better to raise grass turtles in water because they are aquatic turtles and live in water all the year round. Although you can move on land, you can't leave the water for a long time. It is best to prepare an amphibious environment for them when breeding artificially, so that they can freely choose the living environment.
Although grass turtles can be raised in water, they cannot be raised in deep water. Breeders need to adjust the height of water level according to their size. In infancy, the water level can be below the carapace, which makes it convenient for them to breathe and breathe. When they are adults, the height of water level can be controlled at 1-2 times the height of carapace.
