Secrets on How to Care for Your Turtle Red Eared Slider Variety
Housing Your Turtle Red Eared Slider
Housing your turtle. Red eared slider turtles need a Great Deal of room. If your turtle will live inside, you will need a suitably sized aquarium for your pet. If it will live outside, you will have to create a proper pond with all of the right materials. Additionally, you should provide UV lights, a basking light, water heater a swimming area and a basking area. Housing a red eared slider can get very expensive!
If you are keeping your turtle indoors, be sure it has enough space. A 20-50 gallon aquarium should suffice for most red-eared sliders or box turtles. But, of course, if you have more than one, make sure there is enough room for it to be comfortable. In addition, make sure there is plenty of water and try to be it as pure as possible. Lighting is also important. Turtles require sunlight for vitamin production and proper bone growth. If turtles do not get natural sunlight, you should buy a fluorescent light or other specially designed lights. These may be available at your pet store. Turtles require sunlight for proper bone growth and nutrition. Finally, you need to keep out objects things that could harm your turtle if it eats it, as things like woods chips or other organic materials can be hazardous to your turtle's health. If your turtle is an outdoor turtle, you will need to make sure they have a proper environment as well. See my other articles for more information about how to build a red eared slider tank or pond.
Feeding Your Turtle Red Eared Slider
Feeding your turtle. Red eared slider turtles are mainly herbivorous in the wild and they can remain healthy subsisting on a diet of greens or vegetables such as carrots, lettuce or cabbage or fruits including berries. You can also feed your turtle earthworms or live insects such as spiders, crickets or beetles. Commercial turtle food is an option in case your turtle isn't getting all of the nutrients they need. But you need to keep in mind that turtles are picky eaters sometimes, so you'll need to discover what is effective for your turtle. The food you feed your turtle and how often they need fed (daily, every other day) depends upon the species and age of your turtle. You can find other places available for you to find great advice on turtle red eared slider care and other pet turtle aids.
