2. Why should tortoises be raised dry

1. Turtle breeds: Not all tortoises can be raised dry. Usually, tortoises can live out of water, but both water turtles and semi-water turtles need water sources nearby, otherwise they will dehydrate and die.

2. Turtles are sick: The reason why some water turtles need to be raised dry is that they are sick, and most turtles' diseases are related to water quality, so breaking away from the original water environment is helpful for their recovery.

3. Dry rearing method: Dry rearing is not completely water-free, because water turtles cannot be dehydrated, so they should be kept in a dry place at ordinary times, but clean blisters should be prepared every day, which can be soaked 1-3 times a day for 10-60 minutes each time, so as to supplement it with some water.
