As we all know, turtles live a very long life. If raised well, the tortoise can be sent away for generations. Especially for wild turtles, because they live in the wild for a long time, they can adapt to many adverse living environments. However, if we want to raise wild turtles, we should also pay attention to the methods. Not everything can survive. Today, Xiaobian will tell you how to raise wild turtles.
Before we catch a wild turtle in the wild and want to take it home for breeding, we first need to check whether there is any injury to the turtle’s body. If the tortoise is injured, it will be difficult for us to survive if we take it home without any treatment. When the tortoise is found to be injured, we must first send it to the hospital for professional diagnosis and treatment, and then take it home for breeding. Then we have to disinfect the tortoise, because the living environment in the wild makes its body accumulate a lot of bacteria.
First, we put the tortoise into an appliance filled with potassium permanganate solution, and then let the tortoise soak in it for 3 ~ 5 minutes. The wild tortoise that has just been raised at home should not be fed for the first two days. Because we need to adapt the tortoise to the new living environment and repair the stress response in the body at the same time. We should put the tortoise in a relatively quiet corner, because the tortoise dare to move only in a quiet environment. The tortoise will not eat until the tortoise confirms that the place is safe. If the tortoise still doesn’t eat after a week, it proves that the tortoise doesn’t adapt to the environment and needs to be released as soon as possible.
If the tortoise is very lively after a week, it proves that the tortoise has adapted to the environment. For the turtle’s diet, we can feed the turtle with some small fish and shrimp. For the turtle’s living environment, we can try to choose a water tank that can automatically filter water. If we don’t choose a water tank that can filter water, we should often change the water for the tortoise. Be sure to keep the turtle’s living environment clean. The temperature of the turtle’s living environment is generally between 20 and 30 degrees. The tortoise grows very fast at this temperature.
