1. How to raise the razor turtle

1. Space: The raising of the razor turtle is very particular. The container must be large enough. Some aquatic plants can be placed in the jar. A drying table can be set at the bottom of the jar. Then some gravel and shells can be placed around the jar to simulate and restore their original living environment as far as possible, so that they can grow more healthily.

2. Feeding: Razor turtles are omnivorous animals. This kind of turtle is easy to raise. There are many kinds of food to eat, mainly fresh meat, insects, crustaceans, amphibians, and so on. Snails, fish and shrimp, insects, fresh lean meat and so on are their favorite foods. If you are busy, you can also feed some turtle feed or dog food. You can also feed fresh vegetables and fruits, such as lettuce, aquatic plants, watermelon and so on. In a word, we should do a good job of matching meat and vegetables to make it nutritionally balanced. Feeding once a day, when they grow up, they can be fed once every two days.

3. Water temperature: The ambient temperature of razor turtles is generally around 25-28 degrees. 30 degrees or even higher is no problem, as long as the container is big enough and there is plenty of water in it. The water temperature should not be too low, otherwise it will affect the appetite of razor turtles.

4. Water quality: Water quality is a very important factor for breeding razor turtles. The Razor Turtle is a deep water turtle that needs to be raised in deep water. Deep-water aquaculture needs to pay attention to the cleaning of water quality and change water regularly. In addition, filters can be placed in the container and the container can be cleaned regularly.

5, basking in the sun: basking in the sun for the growth of razor turtles have a great help, can play a role in sterilization, and can improve the resistance of razor turtles. You can let them bask in the sun every day. However, in summer, considering the strong light, we can not let direct light shine on them.
