The tortoise is a relatively easy animal to raise, especially the common Brazilian tortoise or grass tortoise, etc. Their adaptability is strong, and it is very convenient to raise them. Unlike mammals, they must provide a lot of space, and they have to be taken out for a walk. They only need a turtle tank, and put them in it to ensure that they cannot climb out.
Raising a turtle is very easy to manage. Provide it with a pool and a sunning table. It can soak in the water at ordinary times and bask in the sun on the sunning table when it is free. It should be noted that because of the usual feeding to throw food into the water, although easy to bad water, need to change water regularly to maintain water quality, so that turtles can grow healthily.
In fact, any pet has a smell, this is mainly due to the usual cleaning is not in place, or the feed is not good, resulting in it difficult to digest or malnutrition, but the turtle as an omnivorous animal, usually as long as pay attention to change the water, will not have a very heavy smell, in addition to the smell of female turtles than male smaller.
The life span of the tortoise is relatively long, of course, the general ornamental tortoise can not live longer than people, usually between 15-20 years, well raised can live longer, such as the Brazilian tortoise can live up to about 35 years, some tortoises can live more than 50 years, as long as properly raised, generally will not soil death.
