Huang Throat Tips for raising and raising terrapin hatchlings
Yellow-throated terrapin (certain introduction)

Juvenile The turtle is a small turtle that has just emerged from its shell. It is relatively weak, prone to illness and has a high mortality rate. However, it needs a lot of nutritional supplements at this time, so the protection of the hatchlings must be very careful. The yellow-throated water turtle is relatively precious. In order to ensure economic efficiency, the breeding and control of hatchlings must be done well.

The newly hatched yellow-throated turtle only weighs 3~5g. It absorbs the nutrients contained in the yolk sac in the first 3 days and can be fed at 3 dawn when it is mature. For egg yolks or mealworms, feed refined, fine, tender, soft and easy-to-digest high-quality feed at 7 dawn, such as minced fresh fish and shrimp, animal offal, fruits, vegetables and potatoes, etc. The feeding amount is 5% of the total body weight of the turtle. The arrangement is to finish eating within 100 minutes after feeding. Feed twice a day in summer, once a day in spring and autumn, and once every two days in late autumn. However, high-quality feed with high protein and fat content should be fed so that the turtle can reserve as much energy as possible for overwintering. May it survive the long, severe winter safely.

at. The stocking density is about 100 per square meter. The hatchlings are temporarily raised for 15 to 30 days or are raised in a hatchling pond after overwintering. If the hatchling pond is located indoors, the water depth should be increased to 30cm, the top of the pond wall should have an eaves to prevent escape, the ratio of water and land area in the pond is 2:1, the bottom of the pond should be paved with 20cm thick hard clay, and the stocking density should be 20~30 per square meter. For the feed of young turtles, plant feeds such as duckweed or melons and vegetables can be added to the feed formula of hatchlings. During the peak growth season from May to August, the feeding amount can be increased to 10% of the total weight of the turtle body. One month before overwintering High-quality feed rich in fat should also be fed to facilitate a safe winter. Change the water in the hatchling pond every 3 to 5 days, and change about 1/3 of the water frequently.

After 2 to 3 months of careful raising, the baby turtles can weigh more than 50g. When the temperature is stable above 20℃, they can be transferred to the outdoor turtle pond. Feed. When the body weight of 3-year-old young turtles (i.e. in the spring after overwintering for the second time) has reached more than 250g, it is time to start cultivating green turtles with Basilophora chelata.
