Caring Brazilian Turtles
1. First, identify your turtle by:
Finding out the gender of your turtles. Male turtles have much longer claws on front paws. The Cloaca on female turtles is closer to the shell than the male.
2. Prepare a comfortable place to live
We must prepare a place to live that is suitable with the needs of the turtles. If you have small turtles, then it is okay to put them in small place, but if your turtles are big, give them enough space by putting them in a place that is quite large. It is better for you to place them in a place that enables them to move freely so that the growth will be faster. The environment of the living place should also consist of water and land area. To maintain the cleanliness of the place where your turtles live, it is better for you to clean the place every other day. This must be done because turtles live in water, eat in the water and throw their waste in the water, then if the water in the aquarium is not clean, it will affect their health.
3. Foods that support growth
Just like caring for other pets, food is also essential to grow turtles. You can get food for your turtles in pet shops or places that sell food for fish.
4. Positive treatment
Remember, turtles are living creatures. If you want to make them as your pet, treat them gently.
Sunbath your turtles for a few hours a day in because it will help the growth of their shell, feed them every day and do not forget to clean their aquarium.
