In what environment and how much water should the Brazilian tortoise be put?

1. First of all, young Brazilian tortoises can be raised in flat-bottomed containers without any difficulty. Plastic pots, plastic jars, glass jars or boxes, and aquariums are all suitable. The water should not be too deep, it should be deep enough for them to swim. The most important thing is to change water in time.

2. Secondly, attention should be paid during the breeding process: check whether the breeding box leaks water every day, and there should be no things around the breeding box that allow turtles to clamp their bodies, so as to prevent turtles from escaping and dying from the scorching sun.

3. Furthermore, the breeding environment of Brazilian tortoise is very important. It lives in water most of the time and likes to live in clear water. In addition, the activity of the Brazilian tortoise changes with the change of environmental temperature. The optimum temperature for hibernation is 20℃~32℃, 1 1℃, and the deep hibernation is below 6℃. Therefore, under normal circumstances, as long as the water temperature is not lower than 4℃, it can be safely wintered.

Finally, regarding the food of the Brazilian tortoise, although it is an omnivore, it is a veritable carnivore under the condition of artificial feeding. Soft minced meat, shrimp meat and boneless and spineless fish are the favorite foods of Brazilian turtles, especially fresh shrimp meat, but foods like fat meat, hard dried meat, cooked meat and various crude fibers are the most annoying.

However, when artificially raised, the internal organs of poultry, pigs and other animals, as well as maggots and breadworms are the main ones. Properly mix fruits, vegetables and mixed feed to enhance nutrition in the body. Vitamin E powder and antibiotics are added in spring and autumn to increase the amount of eggs conceived by turtles and enhance their physique.

In short, we should pay attention to the following points when raising:

1, Brazilian turtles have the habit of sunbathing, but they can't sunbathe for a long time;

2, the breeding density should not be too large, pay attention to the size classification, in order to facilitate the growth of turtles;

3. Keep the water clean, change the water frequently, and clean the bottom sand frequently to avoid the reproduction of bacteria and pests. If the feed is thrown into the water, do not put pebbles in the water to avoid the feed rotting in the cracks of the stones and affecting the water quality. The water temperature should be kept above 25℃
