How to breed soft-shelled turtle 1 at home, and the breeding environment
Turtles generally grow in places with plenty of sunshine and water. When raising at home, you need to prepare a large tank filled with 2/3 of water, and then put it on the window sill or balcony facing south. In order to prevent the growth of algae, an algaecide can be added to the water and a layer of pebbles can be laid on the bottom of the tank.
2. Change the water in time
Domestic soft-shelled turtles should use tap water that has stood still for more than 2 days, and the frequency of changing water is 2-3 days. It is not necessary to change all the water, unless the inner wall of the tank is dirty. When changing water, plastic pipes can be used to siphon away the dirty water at the bottom, and then fresh water with the same capacity can be added.
feed
Soft-shelled turtles raised at home feed on the internal organs of pork, beef, small fish and shrimp or poultry, and the food should be chopped when feeding. In order to reduce water pollution, it is best to take the soft-shelled turtle out and feed it, or feed it in a separate container, usually once every 2-3 days.
4. Preventive measures
When making fresh feed for domestic soft-shelled turtle, it must be disinfected and cleaned, and adhere to the principle of ready-to-eat, so as to avoid spoilage. Moreover, the turtle is timid, so as to reduce the interference to it during feeding and recover the remaining bait in time after feeding.
