1. Pay attention to temperature difference: When Brazilian tortoises change water, they should first pay attention to temperature difference. Although they have lower requirements for the environment and strong adaptability, too large temperature difference will also affect their lives, and they are prone to catch colds. Therefore, when changing water, breeders need to keep the temperature difference between new water and old water between 3-5 ℃.
2. Pay attention to water quality: Secondly, pay attention to changing water. Most of the Brazilian tortoises are raised with tap water. Because this kind of water is easy to obtain and the water quality is clean. However, tap water is chemically disinfected, which contains more chemicals. Although it is harmless to human body, it has certain influence on Brazilian tortoises. Breeders need to take out tap water or expose it to the sun for 2 days, and then use it best for Brazilian tortoises.
3. Pay attention to the amount of water changed: Finally, the amount of water changed by Brazilian tortoises should not be too large, otherwise the fluctuation of water quality will make them uncomfortable. Therefore, breeders change up to half of the water when changing water.
2. Precautions for feeding Brazilian tortoisesWhen feeding Brazilian tortoises, we should first pay attention to the diversity of food. Although they prefer animal feed, it is best for breeders to feed animal feed with plant feed. Secondly, we should pay attention to the amount of feeding. Although the intestines and stomach of Brazilian tortoises are not particularly fragile, feeding too much can easily cause indigestion, so it is best for breeders to feed 70% full every time. Finally, we should pay attention not to feed cooked food and foods high in oil and salt, which will not only affect their digestive system, but also cause a burden on their kidneys.
