2. What should I pay attention to when changing shells of Brazilian tortoises

1. The water quality is clean: The change of shells of Brazilian tortoises is not achieved overnight, they fall off little by little. The shelled carapace will pollute the water quality, so it is best for breeders to change the water every day when they shell, so as to ensure the water quality is clean. However, the amount of water change should not be too large, and half of it should be changed at most every time. In addition, if the shell falls off in water, it needs to be fished out in time.

2. Adequate food: Brazilian tortoises need more nutrition when changing shells, and breeders need to feed them a lot of food, so as to ensure that they have enough energy when shelling. Although they should be fed a lot of food, we should also pay attention to the diversity of food, and we should not only feed a single food to ensure adequate nutrition.

3. Avoid scaring: It is best not to scare the Brazilian tortoise during shell changing, otherwise it may affect its future growth and development, and it is also very unfavorable to its health.
