Picture of the difference between grass turtle and stone turtle

Pet Question

Top tortoises and stone tortoises are two different types of tortoises. Their main differences lie in their physical characteristics and natural habits.

Appearance characteristics: Turtles are relatively small in size, and their shells are generally light brown or dark brown, sometimes with red or yellow patterns. The stone turtle is slightly larger than the grass turtle, and its shell is mainly gray-brown. It is usually thicker, flatter in appearance, and as hard as stone.

Natural habits: Grass turtles mainly live in swamps, wetlands, grasslands and other places, and prefer to swim in the water. Stone turtles, on the other hand, mainly live in arid stone environments, and will even squeeze into stone crevices for shelter, and have less activity in the water.

In general, the difference between grass turtles and stone turtles is relatively obvious. In terms of feeding, it is necessary to reasonably set up the breeding environment and nutritional intake according to their living habits and appearance characteristics. At the same time, pay attention to regular health checks and take necessary protective measures to ensure their health and happiness.
