Turtles are poikilothermic animals, so their activities are often restricted by temperature. They are very active when the temperature is high, and they become more sleepy when the temperature is low. In addition to temperature, some turtles are lazy by nature and tend to sleep during the day. In addition, turtles are more afraid of strong light, so do not put it in a place where the light is too strong, so that it will find some shady places to rest.
1. The temperature is too low: If the turtle lives in a place where the temperature is relatively low, it may cause it to sleepiness. In view of this situation, it is necessary to raise the temperature appropriately, because the temperature is too low will cause it to hibernate, and may even freeze to death. Usually, the temperature should be controlled above 15 C, preferably around 20 C.
2. Physical discomfort: In the process of raising turtles, if they are infected with bacteria or parasites, they will also become lethargic, and their bodies will gradually become thin and weak. In view of this situation, it is necessary to find out the cause of the disease in time, and then treat it. Some diseases need dry nourishment, and they can soak in water for a period of time every day.
3. The space is too small: Whether you raise a turtle or another animal, you must provide a spacious living environment. If it is confined to a very small place, it will not get exercise at ordinary times, and it will become more and more lazy. Therefore, you must use a larger container to raise it.
