If it is a newly born Brazilian tortoise cub, don't rush into the water when raising it. First, see if its navel has been collected. If it is confiscated, going into the water rashly may affect its health and even get sick. If it has been collected, it can be raised in water, but turtles that are too small cannot be raised in deep water, so they must use shallower water to avoid choking.

Feeding Brazilian tortoise cubs is critical. Newborn tortoise seedlings can also absorb yolk sac, so they can be fed without feeding. When they grow up, they have to feed. Although its eating habits are very miscellaneous, when it was young, it was mainly meat, and it was necessary to choose lean meat. Too fat meat was difficult to digest for Brazilian tortoises, so it could not be fed.

Even Brazilian tortoise cubs should bask in the sun every day. There are many benefits of basking in the sun. For turtles, the most important thing is to promote metabolism, which can accelerate their growth. Besides, it can also help absorb calcium, thus preventing diseases and enabling them to develop healthily.

Brazilian tortoise cubs in the first year can hibernate if their length exceeds 5 cm, but their bodies must be strong. If they are thin tortoises, hibernation also has certain risks. Keep the environment moist during hibernation, and the temperature should not be too high or too low, otherwise it may wake up early or freeze to death.
