The tortoise is an animal that can live on both land and water. He can breathe with his lungs, has armor plates on his shell, and he is able to reduce water evaporation in the sun. Tortoises like to lay their eggs on land, so they don’t need to go through the aquatic stage. Turtle for food is not pick, is an omnivorous animal, animal feed mainly worms, shrimp, fish, mussels, snails, earthworms and so on. He can also eat animal carcasses and offal such as pig blood and chicken liver; Plant feed has plant leaves and stems, wheat bran, melon peel and so on.

Tortoises have stages of feeding. Feeding in late May (when the water temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, feeding can begin, and when the water temperature is above 15 degrees Celsius, feeding is normal), they will be 5-10% of the turtle’s body weight; From July to September, food intake is the most vigorous appetite, accounting for about 4-8%; In November his appetite dropped much better, by 1-3%. And his dormant phase. The tortoise is not an endothermy. His body temperature changes with the outside temperature. From December to March, when the temperature is below 15 degrees, the turtles hibernate in the mud at the bottom of the pool or in loose soil with straw. From August to October, when the temperature is above 30 degrees, tortoises enter the summer resting phase. At this stage the tortoise is busy starting mating, breeding, feeding, and seeking a good place to spend the winter.

Tortoises like to live in groups and are often seen together, but sometimes their back armour is worn smooth and their feet are worn with skin. But he still didn’t want to part with them.

Turtle molting we are very rare, but although it is a rare phenomenon, but also a normal variation of biological phenomenon. Snakes shed their skin as a natural part of growth, but turtles shed their shells regularly, which is still very strange. In captivity, tortoises can be kept away from germs, contaminated water and poisoned food.

If we choose to keep a small turtle, we should choose to keep the turtle in a sunny, sheltered place with water. If we give the turtle too much water, the turtle will die easily.

Turtles like to bask in the sun, you can always put the turtle box in the sun.
