1. How to raise the Brazilian tortoise when it comes home 1. The water temperature is constant: The Brazilian tortoise that has just been bought home is unfamiliar with the environment, and the breeder needs to keep the water temperature at about 25 ℃. If conditions permit, it is best to use a heating rod to keep the temperature constant. This can reduce their discomfort and make them adapt to the new environment more quickly.
2. Clean water quality: When Brazilian tortoises are just bought home, they should pay attention not to change water too frequently, because the water quality fluctuates too much, which will also affect their adaptation speed. If the water is not dirty, it can be changed about once a week.
3. Proper feeding: Don't rush to feed the tortoises when they first arrive home. Not only will they not eat, but they will also be frightened. It is best for breeders to wait for them to adapt to the new environment before trying to feed food.
4, basking in the sun: When Brazilian tortoises are just bought home, they don't need to bask in the sun every day. It is best to take the initiative to climb out and bask in the sun after they adapt to the environment.
2. How do Brazilian tortoises eatBrazilian tortoises will not eat without adapting to the new environment. If breeders want them to eat, they can stimulate them to eat with living creatures besides ensuring the stability of the environment. For example, live small fish and shrimps can be put into containers, which can arouse their desire to prey. You can also put in a Brazilian tortoise that has already eaten. When they see their companions eating, they will imitate them.
