The Brazilian tortoise has recently become a popular pet tortoise. Their overall life span is relatively long, under normal circumstances, that is, they will not die of illness, they can live for about 35 years. In addition, wild species can live even longer, up to about 60 years. The life span of Brazilian turtles raised in families is affected by environmental factors, and careful breeding can make them live longer. Specifically, there are many factors that need to be paid attention to, such as water temperature and water level, feeding, disease prevention and control, etc.
If you want to keep Brazilian turtles alive for a long time at home, you need to pay special attention to the way of breeding. The first is the water level. The Brazilian tortoise is a terrapin, but it is not a pure terrapin, so it can neither lack water nor let the water level too deep. Whether the water level is suitable or not has a great impact on their life. Furthermore, the problem of water quality, tap water at home can be used, but can not be used directly, need to be used after the sun. Then there is the problem of water temperature, which can be adjusted to 20-32 degrees in the growth stage, while the hibernation period needs to be lower, below 15 degrees. Then is feeding, can not let them be starved to death, fish and shrimp, meat, vegetables and other foods can be reasonably matched to feed. Then the more important point is the prevention and treatment of disease, if the disease may lead to their death, it will affect their life span. Therefore, it is best to prevent diseases regularly, it is best not to wait until after the occurrence of diseases in the treatment, usually when farming can pay more attention.
