The central tortoise is a kind of tortoise that can be raised artificially, and their breeding is not too difficult. The central brocade tortoise is a kind of omnivorous tortoise, all kinds of food can be fed to them, they are not picky eaters. The two most common types of food are animal foods and plant foods. Wild eastern painted turtles will prey on aquatic animals in the water as food, such as snails, slugs, tadpoles and so on; If they are raised artificially, they can use small fish, shrimp, red worms and so on as their food. The wild central brocade turtle will take some aquatic plants in the water as its own food, such as algae, aquatic plants, etc; If they are raised in captivity, they can be fed some vegetables and fruits.
Furthermore, if they are raised at home, they can also be fed some good quality turtle feed, which contains more nutrients and is helpful to their growth and development. However, some central brocade turtles are not very interested in turtle feed and should not be fed more. Also note that their food preferences are different at different stages of growth, they prefer to eat meat when they are young, but when they grow up, they prefer to eat vegetarian food, and they can choose the types of food according to their preferences.
When feeding the middle tortoise, you also need to pay attention to the feeding interval. When they are in the juvenile stage, they can be fed every day, because their growth rate will be faster in this stage, and feeding them every day can provide them with adequate nutrition. After they grow up a little, they can be fed once every 2-3 days, because their growth rate is slower at this time. However, because they are larger at this time, they need to feed more.
