Finally, in the family breeding, there are some food can be considered, such as watermelon and other fruits, as well as lean meat used in cooking, flame turtle is also more like to eat.
When choosing the type of food for the flame turtle, we should pay attention to balanced nutrition, and the combination of meat and vegetables is the best. In addition, the types of food they are interested in are different at different stages of their growth.

To feed the flame turtle, in addition to paying attention to the type of food, you also need to pay attention to the issue of how often to feed it. When the flame turtle is still relatively young, the growth rate will be faster, at this time it is best to feed once a day, at about 8 or 9 in the morning feeding is more appropriate. After they become adults, their growth slows down and they can be fed once every two days. However, although they do not need to be fed frequently when they grow up, they should also pay attention to increasing the amount of feeding appropriately.
