How to raise a concave tortoise well

How to feed The best-armed tortoise
The best-armored tortoise (definite introduction)

Many people often encounter many problems when raising the best-armored tortoise. , so I believe many people are also concerned about the issue of how to raise beautiful tortoises. If you want to raise good-looking tortoises, environmental temperature is a very critical factor. Since the native area of ​​​​the cartilage is the dense forest in the subtropical and hot mountainous areas, it is very critical whether the environment in the owner's area is suitable for the existence of the carp.

It is relatively easy for the baby to withstand cold, so the temperature of 23~28 is the most suitable temperature. A room temperature exceeding 32 degrees will cause the disease of the baby. Humidity needs to be around 70~90%. If it is lower than 40%, the tortoise shell will easily crack, and if the air is too dry, the tortoise will appear very restless, crawling and bumping around. The first is the issue of ventilation: in mountainous areas, mountain winds blow through every day, and the air condition is very good. However, if they are kept in a breeding box, due to poor ventilation and high humidity inside, it is easy for bacteria to grow and be attacked by viruses. As for the altitude theory widely circulated on the Internet, it should be partial and cannot be believed.

In terms of food, the turtle is more similar to the omnivorous mountain tortoise than to the vegan tortoise. They are not very interested in vegetables. Although most people have success with mushrooms such as oyster mushrooms and continue to feed mushrooms for a long time, in fact, mushrooms are not easily digested and often There are undigested mushrooms in the eliminated feces. Compared with other tortoises, low-sugar fruits and meat are more suitable for them. Bananas, bamboo shoots, melons, and tomatoes (feed less) can all be absorbed, and meat can also account for 30% of the food (helpers of meat) It plays a balancing role in the health of the tortoise. The tortoise is not only more carnivorous than other tortoises, but also helps to strengthen the resistance. However, do not reduce the amount of meat fed just after starting to eat). The armor is very sensitive to the smell of food. Once it is fed new food with an unpleasant taste, it will vomit and resist it with its front paws. It is best not to feed seafood. I am more interested in red, white and yellow food. After feeding meat, the feces will be very smelly, but it is useful for helping digestion: in comparison, the feces of carnivorous animals are smelly but Digestion is complete, and most of the vegetarian feces retain the original form of food.

The tortoise is a relatively primitive tortoise. The digestive organs are not fully evolved, so they cannot digest vegetarian food well. Because the digestive organs are relatively fragile, the temperature is too high. Scenarios that cause gastrointestinal diseases and cause harm account for more than 70% of deaths.

Frequency of feeding. In QiEager to eat, many people are very excited when they see the turtle they just bought eating, so they continue to feed it and are keen to observe the turtle's eating every day. This is not good. When feeding the turtle, you should follow the principle of feeding enough at one time, and let the turtle eat 9 portions every time, or until it stops eating. Then feed again every 3 to 4 days. That is to say twice a week. This is to provide a sufficient digestion process and reduce the pressure of digestion. In many cases, the concave armor will stay in one place without moving for a long time, especially for a period of time after eating drum. Under normal circumstances, the feces defecate 1 to 2 times a week. If the feeding frequency is too dense, the old and new food will overlap in the stomach, and the normal use will not be achieved.

Moisture compensation is very important. Many people who have raised chickens know that water absorption of chicken nails can be described as "drinking". However, it does not mean that drinking a lot of water and defecation are definitely caused by parasites or other serious infirmities. Some people think that the phenomenon of large amounts of water drinking in gallbladders is because they have the habit of storing water in their abdominal cavity for later use. On the one hand, it maintains the supply of water in the body, and on the other hand, it can regulate body temperature in a hot and dry environment, which is a bit like a hump. So soak in water frequently in summer. One thing to note here is that individuals with injuries should soak in water carefully. The more common injuries of concave nails are extruded internal injuries that lead to carapace cracks and leakage of body fluids; rotten nails; and wound sensation caused when external parasites are removed. If you have any of these injuries, you need to wait until the wound is completely healed. Taking a bath before that will reverse the wound.
