There are many containers for raising turtles. Generally, small turtles can be raised directly in pots, which can put some sand and pebbles, but also a little water, can let turtles soak in it, but also provide a place to bask in the sun. You can also use a fish tank to raise turtles, but do not add too deep water, the water level can be slowly increased, but also can plant some water plants, or raise some small fish and shrimp. In addition, the use of breeding box to raise is also very good.
1. Feeding: The first thing to do when raising turtles is to feed them. As an omnivorous animal, they have a wide range of choices for feed. If it is a terrapin, it prefers animal feed, you can feed it a little fish and shrimp, or snail meat and clam meat, but also regularly feed vegetables, supplement a little nutrition. It is usually fed once every three days, and calcium powder should be added to the feed irregularly.
2. Change the water regularly: Generally, after eating, the turtle will enter the water to excrete, so the water quality often deteriorates quickly, so it is usually necessary to change the water for it a few hours after feeding. The water should be changed completely, and the temperature of the new water and the old water should be kept the same, so as not to make it produce some stress reaction.
3. Get more sun: Raise a turtle to get more sun. The sun can not only sterilize and disinfect it, but also promote the synthesis of vitamin D. It is of great help to the absorption of calcium and prevent the occurrence of soft shell disease.
