Turtles are actually Chinese soft-shelled turtles, which are common in China. Often inhabit rivers, lakes or ponds. They like to eat worms, snails, shrimp and small fish, as well as plant leaves and grains. Often mature male turtles will turn black, which is called blackening in the industry. Raising a turtle means raising a leisurely mood. In the spring of March, after the sting, the tortoise began to hibernate and wake up, and began to eat around April every year; From June to September, eating, exercising and spawning all reach the peak, which is also the time when turtles gain the fastest weight after a winter rest. By June 65438+10, the temperature in all parts of the country was gradually decreasing, and the food intake of turtles and grass turtles began to decrease. They stop eating at about 20 degrees Celsius, empty their stomachs, and start hibernating at 15 degrees Celsius. When the temperature drops below 10 degrees Celsius, they enter a long and peaceful hibernation period.

The living habits and eating habits of turtles are closely related to climate and temperature, while grass turtles are relatively simple. Feeding and caring for your beloved turtles usually spoil them in the following ways:

1, the food of the grass turtle: The food of the grass turtle is mainly live fish and shrimp and high-quality turtle food, which is generally preserved for three to five days or a week before eating. When the tortoise starts to eat, it can simply order fish and shrimp. After a long time, they can try to feed some fruits and vegetables, corn, worms in peaches and so on. And the food should be as diverse as possible. In addition, if it is raised from a young age, try to feed it regularly and quantitatively, such as 7: 00 a.m. or 6: 00 p.m. every day, so that the turtle's defecation will be regular, and don't rush to put it back in the jar after feeding! Stop for half an hour, change the water in the container into clear water, and then continue to put it back in the container! The poop and unfinished food in the turtle tank need to be fished out in time, so as to keep the water quality better and longer. When people are lazy, they don't want to rummage frequently, so they need skills.

2. Suitable temperature of grass turtle: the water temperature is above 25 degrees, that is, the temperature is above 27 degrees. Because there is a temperature difference of 2-3 degrees between temperature and water temperature, water turtles with water temperature above 25 degrees like to eat normally. When the water temperature is 25 to 20 degrees, eating is reduced and activity is reduced. The water temperature ranges from 20 degrees to 15 degrees, and you can't eat at first. The adaptability of the fry to the temperature difference is very poor, so they should rest in shallow water, try not to play in their palms, and pay attention to controlling the temperature difference, especially the fry.

3. Emotional cultivation with turtles: If you want turtles to get close to themselves, you should start with seedlings. It should be noted that before the age of one, don't flip and abuse, or you will be afraid of people when you grow up. When the sun is fine, you can put the tortoise in the sun. When feeding, you can also feed it with tweezers to cultivate its habit of receiving food, so it is also fun to interact with its owner.
