Meat is the main food for the artificial reproduction of the Brazilian tortoise, especially in the larval and larval stages. Small fish, shrimp and lean meat of animals are the main foods, and plant feeds (bananas, fruits, etc.). ) mixed with worker ants can also be eaten in adulthood.
In the wild, adult turtles' diets include herbs such as algae and duckweed floating in the water, crustaceans such as pythons, mussels, small fish and shrimps, and mollusks such as snails.

Matters needing attention in breeding Brazilian tortoise:
1, you can't put the mouse cage in a place exposed to the hot sun, otherwise once the turtle enters the mouse cage and is locked inside, it will be sunburned into a wax turtle, so this is worth noting.
2. Check the aquaculture box for water leakage every day. If there is nothing to let the turtle climb out of the incubator and leak in the hot sun, it will also kill the turtle there, especially in summer.
3. In addition, there should be no things around the incubator that allow turtles to clamp their bodies, so as to prevent turtles from escaping and dying in the open sun.
Turtles should not use round glass jars or plastic boxes, which will make them lose their sense of direction.
5. Don't use red sorting boxes or other feeding boxes, turnover boxes, etc. Because Brazilian turtles don't like red, they use red sorting boxes or other feeding boxes and turnover boxes. It will stimulate Brazil and make Brazilian turtles restless in the water.
