a pet turtle cannot stay in the water all the time. Although it can swim, it still breathes with its lungs. Moreover, staying in the water for a long time is harmful to its health. Usually, when the temperature is not particularly high during the day, you can put it in the sun to dry your back, which helps to sterilize and disinfect, and also promotes the synthesis of vitamins, is conducive to the absorption of calcium, and prevents the occurrence of soft shell disease.
1. Timing of dry raising: The tortoise does not have to be raised in a dry way all the time. Generally, it is only after it gets sick, especially when it gets diseases such as rotten skin and rotten nail. In order to prevent the rotten part from getting wet, the situation continues to deteriorate, so it needs to be raised in a dry manner for a period of time. When the tortoise is normal, it does not need dry feeding, otherwise it will cause dehydration.
2. Regular water soaking: Because normal turtle raising is to soak it into the water, the water level should be around the back, dry raising is not soaking water, but it can not completely leave the water, as mentioned above, completely leaving the water will lead to dehydration, which is harmful to its health. It can soak once or twice a day for 20-60 minutes each time.
3. Precautions: It is necessary to maintain a certain humidity during dry maintenance. At the same time, when soaking in water every day, it is necessary to avoid the rotten part being wet. It is best to apply a little iodophor to the wound.
