Turtles in their infancy can change water once every half month or so, because they are not seriously polluted by water quality at this time, and they are sensitive to the fluctuation of water quality, so the frequency of changing water does not need to be too high. Adult turtles had better change water once a week, because their appetite is relatively large and their metabolism speed is relatively high, so the pollution to water quality is also relatively serious. Breeders need to change water more frequently, and it is best to change it once every 7 days or so.
Turtles change water every few days and feed them every few days 1. Turtles change water every few days

Turtles can change water every 7-15 days, but the frequency of changing water is different at different stages. Under normal circumstances, the frequency of changing water in childhood does not need to be too high, and it is ok to change water once every 15 days. Because they don't pollute the water seriously in their infancy, the breeder doesn't need to change water for them too often.

After the turtle reaches adulthood, the breeder can change the water once a week. Because they are greedy and metabolize faster, they pollute the water quality seriously. Breeders had better increase the frequency of water change, and it is best to change water once every 7 days or so. In summer, the water quality will deteriorate faster, so breeders need to adjust the frequency of water change according to the change of water quality.

2. Turtles are fed once every few days

The feeding frequency of juvenile turtles needs to be higher, and it is best to feed them twice a day. Breakfast and dinner can be chosen at the feeding time, and the amount of feeding should not be too large. It is enough to feed 80% at a time. Because the digestive ability of young turtles is not strong, and the appetite is not large, the breeder needs a small amount of feeding for many times to ensure their adequate nutrition.

When they are adults, they can be fed once a day, and the amount of each feed can be eaten within 30 minutes. Because turtles eat more and digest faster in adulthood, breeders can feed less frequently.
