1. Is it better to raise Chinese grass turtles dry or water Chinese grass turtles are better to raise them in water because they live in water most of the time in the wild. Although they are amphibious turtles, they can move on land and prefer to bask in the sun, but they cannot leave the water for a long time. Otherwise, there will be the risk of dehydration and death. In addition, dry cultivation may lead to deformation of their carapace. When breeding grass turtles artificially, it is best to choose water culture. Although they can be raised in water, their water quality is not very good, and breeders need to decide the water level according to their size.
2. Is Chinese grass turtle a water turtle or a semi-water turtleChinese grass turtle is a species between water turtle and semi-water turtle, because compared with semi-water turtle, they can adapt to deeper water level, and they eat and breed in water, which is similar to water turtle. However, their swimming ability and water quality are relatively poor compared with pure water turtles, so they belong to a species between water turtles and semi-water turtles.
In the process of feeding, it is necessary to determine the height of water level according to their size. The height of water level in childhood can be controlled below or consistent with the height of carapace. In adulthood, the height of water level can be controlled at 1-2 times the height of carapace.
