1. Animal feed: Crocodile turtle belongs to carnivorous turtle. When it is in the wild, it eats some small fish, shrimp, amphibians and invertebrates, and when it is hungry, it also eats some carrion. When raising crocodile turtles artificially, there are many kinds of food to choose from, and some live fish, live shrimp, loach, tadpoles, earthworms, snails, lean meat, animal viscera and so on can be fed.
2. Plant feed: Crocodile turtles in their infancy prefer plant feed, and they can be fed some vegetables and fruits during artificial breeding. Common cabbage, lettuce, cucumber, pumpkin, wax gourd, apple, banana, grape, etc., can be fed to them.
3. Synthetic feed: In order to ensure the nutritional balance of crocodile turtles, breeders can also feed them some synthetic feed. Because the synthetic feed is rich in nutrients, it can balance the nutrition in their bodies.
2. Crocodile turtles are fed several times a dayThe feeding frequency of crocodile turtles is different at different stages. Generally speaking, young crocodile turtles have a large demand for food and strong digestion ability. It is best for breeders to feed them once a day, and the amount of each feed is about 5%-10% of their body weight. When they are adults, the frequency of feeding can be reduced, and they can be fed once every 2-3 days. Because at this time, their demand for food will decrease, and their digestion ability will also decrease.
