In order to breed razor turtles well, the layout of the ecological environment is very important to make it closer to the actual living environment in the wild. Feeding space should be large enough, active razor turtles can have enough space to crawl at the bottom of the tank or swim and play, the temperature control between 25-28 degrees, more conducive to their feeding and growth. Temperature in 30 degrees or even higher some of the problem is not a big problem, do not worry, as long as the preparation of a larger container, in which enough water can be. However, the water temperature of razor turtles should not be too low, if it is too low, it is necessary to use a heating rod to make it suitable.
Razor turtles, if the temperature is appropriate, generally do not need to use heating rods. However, if the water temperature is below 15 degrees, we should pay special attention, because when the temperature is below 15 degrees, their appetite will be reduced, affecting growth and health. Especially in the young period of razor turtles, because the resistance of young turtles to the living environment is poor, just in the growth period, so we must use heating rods to adjust the temperature in the tank, so that they can eat normally and grow healthily. Razor tortoises grow into adults, relatively strong individuals, and the ability of this tortoise to withstand cold is relatively strong, without heating rods can survive the winter. If the water temperature is between 10 and 15 degrees in winter, razor turtles will enter a state of hibernation, which will not be harmful to their health.
Razor turtles like to rest on the heating rod occasionally, don't worry about them being burned by the heating rod, because they won't be burned for a short time. What's more, if they feel very hot, they will leave automatically and can be used safely.
