Whether crocodile turtles grow well or not, what kind of food to feed them will play a key role. Although crocodile turtles are omnivorous turtles, different kinds of food have different effects on their growth rate. If you want the alligator turtle to grow well, you should mainly feed some clean live food, such as small fish, shrimp, loach, etc. Food should not be too single, but also feed some fresh fruits and vegetables. A variety of foods are fed in turn to make nutrition more comprehensive, so that it can grow well. 1、 What food does the alligator turtle eat and grow well? Feeding should be paid attention to in breeding alligator turtles. Reasonable selection of food types is an important task. Although crocodile turtles are omnivorous and not picky eaters, different food types have different effects on their growth rate. They need to choose the most nutritious food so that they can grow well. Crocodile turtles are the most carnivorous turtles. They prefer live food. Feed live food, such as live fish, live shrimp, earthworms and so on. Also, fresh lean meat and animal offal are OK.
Because the crocodile turtle is a wide and miscellaneous animal, if you want the crocodile turtle to grow well, you should pay attention to the diversity of food and feed some plant food. Plant foods include: vegetables, such as cabbage, radish, etc; Cereals, such as rice, rice, etc; Fruits such as bananas, apples, etc. In short, do not feed alone, but take turns feeding a variety of foods. Only in this way can the crocodile turtle grow well. 2、 How often crocodile turtles are fed? Fortunately, when breeding crocodile turtles, if they want to grow well, the feeding frequency is a very important factor. In the juvenile period of crocodile turtle, because it is just in the growth and development period, the growth rate will be faster at this time. It is generally appropriate to feed it once a day. By the time crocodile turtles reach adulthood, they have matured and their growth rate will slow down. They can be fed 2-3 times a week.
However, in winter, when the crocodile turtle hibernates, do not feed it. After hibernation, when the water temperature is constant above 20 degrees, feed it again. Don't feed too much at the end of hibernation, or they may not be able to digest. （EGuiChiShenMeShiWuChangDeHao，DuoJiuWeiYiCiHao）
