Turtles are afraid of the cold. Turtles are cold-blooded animals. If the temperature is too low, their activities will be affected and their appetite will decrease. When the temperature drops below 20°C, the turtle is prone to illness. When the temperature drops below 15°C, the turtle will hibernate. When the temperature drops below 0°C, the turtle may freeze to death. 25~30 degrees is the most suitable temperature for turtles. In winter, you can prepare a heating rod to control the temperature and help the turtle survive the winter.

How to keep a turtle warm:
1. Heating rod
You can prepare a heating rod to heat the breeding tank to help the turtle survive the winter. However, please note that the heating rod must be completely immersed to prevent the heating rod from malfunctioning due to empty or dry burning.
2. Supplementary nutrition
In order to ensure the physical consumption of the turtle during hibernation, it is necessary to supplement the turtle with more nutrition and feed it more fresh food, mainly fish and shrimp. Vegetables are supplemented, and feeding is slowly stopped two weeks before hibernation.
3. Spread sand
You can spread sand at the bottom of the breeding tank. The sand can play a role in insulation. Put a small amount of water in the sand, but not too much. Keep the sand Just keep it moist so the turtle can sleep in the sand during hibernation.
