2. How to feed turtles

1. Feed selection: Turtles are omnivorous animals, so their feeding habits are relatively wide. Besides turtle food, they can be fed with small fish, shrimp, snail meat, clam meat, etc., but they should also pay attention to balanced nutrition, so they need to supplement some vegetables and fruits regularly.

2. Feeding interval: Turtles can't be fed every day, and they can't be fed too much every time, because the turtle shell wants to get bigger, so it can only be changed regularly. If the shell hasn't been changed, the body will get bigger and it will appear very disharmonious. Usually, it is enough to feed once every three days, and the total amount of feeding is about the same as that of the head.

3. Change water in time: Generally, turtles will soak in water after eating, and they will excrete in it. If the water is not cleaned and changed in time, the water quality will deteriorate rapidly, which is harmful to its health and even causes diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to change the water in time, and change it completely, but keep the water temperature consistent.
