The yellow-eared turtle is an omnivorous animal. When it is fed, there are many kinds of food that can be chosen. There are three kinds: animal feed, plant feed, and specialized turtle feed. This animal especially likes to eat meat food, especially live insects, live small fish, shrimp and snails. Of course, if you can't get these live food season, you can feed it some fresh lean meat.
Although the yellow-eared turtle eats meat food, vegetable food is also essential, because it is omnivorous, fresh vegetable leaves, fruits and so on. If some time is busy, feed it some turtle feed appropriately, but not too long, although this feed is very convenient to use, but the feed contains additives, can not be used more. In a word, when feeding yellow-eared turtles, we should adjust them reasonably and match meat and vegetables to make them grow better.
The feeding of the yellow-eared turtle is also very particular. Not only the type of food needs to be paid attention to, but also the frequency of feeding needs to be controlled. Small yellow-eared turtles are usually fed once a day, because they are in the growth period, grow faster and need adequate nutrition. But don't feed the turtles too much to avoid being too full. When feeding, if the food is too big, cut it into small pieces with a knife, which helps it digest and absorb the food. After the yellow-eared turtles become adults, their growth rate will slow down, so they do not need to be fed every day, they can be fed once every two or three days, but considering their large size, the amount of feeding can be increased accordingly.
