The meteor turtle is a North American turtle between the box turtle and the water turtle, because their plastron also has joints that can be opened and closed, but they are not as easy to use as box turtles. They have a gentle personality, are relatively lively, and grow quickly. So do you know how to raise a meteor squid? Let’s take a look together next.
The meteor squid is protected in most states in the United States, but has not yet been included in the federal government Protect. They are carnivorous turtles that mainly feed on freshwater crayfish, which are abundant in North America. They can also prey on other insects, small fish, and tadpoles. It can quickly adapt to the artificial environment and can also accept turtle feed, dried shrimp, mealworms and other foods. The body is strong and the disease rate is very low. Turtles are mild-mannered, relatively lively and grow rapidly. It is worth noting that their necks are longer than ordinary sea turtles. They eat not by biting, but by sucking water like leaf sea turtles or crocodile sea turtles. The long neck can increase the speed of hunting.
The breeding environment is the same as that of ordinary turtles. Although meteor sand turtles have a habit of migrating on land, especially during the breeding season, they usually feed and move in the water. Because they live in the north of the United States, where temperatures are very low, they have strong cold tolerance and hibernation capabilities. On the contrary, in southern China, pay attention to heat-relieving measures in summer.
