How to raise a turtle

1. clean regularly

Turtles live some domestic garbage every day. Therefore, it is necessary to clean up in time to prevent garbage rot from breeding bacterial viruses.Do a good job in cleaning in time to prevent Turtles from getting sick; Turtles and snakes are close relatives, so they will molt, but unlike snakes, the turtle's scales will also fall off!Here we want to abstain from the turtle turtle molting process. Do not help it artificially. It will do it by itself. Some Turtles are because they do nt understand.Like hen to hatch eggs, chicks need to peel off the eggshells themselves, and it is a reason for people who help the chicks that are easy to peel.If your turtle is at the age of molting, then congratulations, this shows that the method of raising Turtles in front of you is correct, otherwise it will not live this day.

Second, feeding needs to ensure the cleaning of food

To prevent the disease from any food from the mouth, it must be checked to ensure freshness and health, and cannot carry any diseased raw, parasites, parasites, viruses, bacteria, toxins, and long -term consumption can ensure the safety and health of fish.Although Turtles are eaten any food, foods that have been fed cheap and low nutritional value may cause nutritional disorders, and they must be careful.Turtles need a large amount of calcium and should feed foods containing a large amount of calcium.Recently, the market -specific turtle -specific feed is launched on the market, which can be eaten with confidence.In addition, carp feed and Dog food are also very appropriate food.Occasionally fed fresh food, snake meat, mice and other fresh foods, which will be able to win the love of Turtles.

Third, the daily cleaning work of the Turtles also includes to replace the new water regularly

Make sure pet Turtles have a healthy and clean living environment.At the same time, pay attention to the right amount every time feeds to ensure that the turtle can be full, and avoid excess food in the turtle pot and prevent the environment from polluting the environment due to food rot.The Turtles are not exposed to UV rays, and they are also unable to use calcium.Compared with the lizard, the facilities that prevent Turtles from escape are simpler. As long as you do a good job of resting water facilities and a cool place, it is not easy to occur in heatstroke, and the method of sunbathing is relatively simple.If the turtle is insufficient, the turtle shell can easily become soft; the vitamin A is insufficient, and the eyes may become white.When the above phenomenon occurs, in addition to the problem of insufficient vitamin A and calcium, it may also involve long -term feeding low -nutrition foods, insufficient ultraviolet rays, etc., which may be errors in the breeding method.It is necessary to provide nutritional balanced foods, and use Solar lights to implement sun baths to completely change the breeding environment.

Four,How to supplement nutritional elements of pet Turtles

The nutrition required by the Turtles is mainly five major nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, inorganic salts and vitamins.

1. Protein.Protein is the most important to the growth and development of Turtles.Turtles take protein directly from the feed.It is generally believed that the protein content in the feed is high, the nutritional value of the feed is good, and the breeding object grows fast.Turtles have high protein content in the feed. The growth stage is different, and the demand is different. Generally, the protein content in the feed is 38%to 42%.

2. Fat.Fat is one of the indispensable components of turtle growth and development.It is mainly used as energy storage in the body or for exercise.The thermal energy of fat oxidized in the Turtles is generally twice the sugar and protein.Experiments have proved that the Turtles with the fat content in the feed is 3.5% to 5.0%. Excessive or too low will affect the efficiency of feed, weight, and meat coefficient.

3. Carbohydrate.The main physiological function of carbohydrates after being absorbed by the body is: one is the mass supply, and the other is to form the body component; the third is to save protein in the body and use it as a feed adhesive.The amount of starch in the turtle feed is 23%to 26%.

4. Inorganic salt.Inorganic salt has a very important effect on the turtle's body. In addition to participating in the formation of bones and blood, it also has a direct or indirect effect on regulating the physiological physiology of the body, especially for Turtles' egg breeding and breeding.Among the necessary inorganic salts, as follows, there are more prone to lack, calcium, phosphorus, sodium, chlorine, magnesium, zinc, copper, cobalt, etc.Calcium and phosphorus accounted for 3/4 of all inorganic salts in the body, especially before and after turtle eggs must be added with "high -efficiency oligraphy additives" such as Bone meal.

5. Vitamin.When Turtles lack vitamins, growth and development slowly, abnormal metabolism, and prone to various diseases.Most vitamins cannot be synthesized in the body and must be supplied by feed.Vitamins are the same as animal hormones. They are not large but essential. Therefore, composite vitamins must be added to the feed.

1. Turtle feed and feed

Turtles have a wide range of food, and they are eaten in rice, Wheat, peas, small fish, shrimp, insects, snails, etc. The favorite foods are small fish, snails, corn and rice.In manual breeding, in order to meet the nutrients needed for the growth of Turtles, to avoid poor growth and development due to the single feed, and anorexia, a variety of feeds should be usedRice, Wheat, corn, etc. in sex feed.To allow the Turtles to digest these feed fully, before feeding the feed, corn, peas, etc. must be crushed, soaked for about 2 hours, and other large pieces of food must be chopped first before feeding.It should also be noted that during the different periods of the growth of Turtles, feeds with different nutrients should be invested according to their growth characteristics.

Turtle's life is closely related to the climate and starts to eat in early April of each year; the highest peak of feeding activities in June and August, the fastest weight increase; until October gradually decreasedWhen, stop eating and enter the hibernation period.Therefore, when feeding, it should be carried out according to the characteristics of the turtle. The general requirements are required to achieve the following points:

1. Timing.The temperature in spring and autumn is low, and the Turtles are not much activities in the morning and evening. They are only eaten around noon, so they should be fed at 8:9:00 am.From Gu Yu to autumnal equinox is the peak season of Turtles. At the time of the summer, the Turtles usually do not move at noon, and most of them are active in the afternoon. Therefore, it is advisable to eat at 16:17 pm.Time can make Turtles eat on time, obtain more nutrition, and ensure fresh feed.

2. Positioning.Set a fixed -feeding point along the shore of the pool. The food table that is filled is close to the water surface to facilitate the Turtles to bite the food.Positioning to feed the feed, the purpose is to allow Turtles to develop habits, convenient for them to find food, and at the same time to observe the Turtles' activities and check food.

3. Proten.The feed feed should be kept fresh. After feeding, the remaining food should be removed in time to prevent the feed from rotting and smelly, which affects the turtle's appetite and pollution water quality.

4. Quantitative.The feed feed depends on the temperature, water quality, Turtles' appetite and their activities. It depends on appetite and its activities, and it is advisable to be a little left.Generally, eat once every 1 and 2 days.

2. The breeding of the turtle

The newly -out -of -shell turtle has a weak constitution, and the gastrointestinal function and digestive ability are also weak. Therefore, it is not advisable to be stored in the breeding pool immediately. Instead, it should be carefully fed and nursing for a period of time to improve the survival rate of the turtle.

3. The principles of feeding and nursing of child Turtles are

1. Do a good job of cleaning and hygiene to prevent Turtles from getting sick.

2. Control the appropriate temperature and astringent to facilitate its normal growth.

3. Cultivate the childhood turtle gradually adapt to the external environment and eat themselves.The specific method is to put the newly -cut turtle in a small glass box and let it crawl for 3 to 5 hours. After the childcard umbilical cord is relieved and convergence, the time is washed with 0.6%physiological saline for a while to disinfect it.Then put the indoor glass box or wooden basin.Do not use the umbilical cord of the turtle to use artificially powerful Turtles.The child turtle breeding box is changed 1 or two times a day, and the water temperature is strictly controlled at 25130 degrees Celsius. When the weather is hot, it is necessary to spray water in the breeding box multiple times to adjust the temperature and increase the oxygen in the water, so that the child turtle can be appropriate to appropriateIt grows normally under conditions.There is no need to eat for the child turtle that just incubated for one or two days. After 2 days, you will start to feed a small amount of grain feed, and then feed a small amount of cooked eggs and mixed feeds such as fish and shrimp, frog meat, pumpkin sweet potatoes and other mixed feeds.EssenceAfter 7 days of breeding, the child turtle has a strong physique, and it can transfer it to the Outdoor breeding pond.

4. What should be paid attention to when breeding Turtles

1. Raise young Turtles, adult Turtles, and parenting pools to avoid the phenomenon of swallowing small Turtles in large Turtles. At the same time, it is also convenient to determine the amount of feed feeding and breeding management, and to observe and master the growth of the Turtles.

2. Because the Turtles are mild and timid, they should be kept quiet around the breeding pool, so as not to affect normal activities such as turtle feeding, sun, mating, and laying eggs.

3. Frequently replace the water of the breeding pond, keep the water clean, and do a good job of the hygiene of the breeding pool to prevent Turtles from diseases.

4. The sand on the open space around the wall and the wall of the pond should maintain a certain humidity.In the summer seasons, some cooling measures should be taken, such as sprinkle water and planting small shrubs.

5. Before the hibernation period, check the growth of the turtle, add the fed feed to the Turtles to accumulate a large amount of nutrients, grow the body, and save the winter.

What tank is good for Turtles?
