PUPPY

我帶了龜兒去看醫生.醫生給我龜之飼養興照顧的資料給我,現分享給大家,望大家的龜兒們健康地成長:

1.餵飼龜兒,必須為他們提供(完整)而又不同種類的天然食物,即如完整的小魚,小蝦,蚯蚓,蛞蝓,蝸牛,蟹,蝌蚪,青蛙及昆蟲(如mak皮蟲,草猛及甲蟲等),(完整的意思是指保留食物之硬殼及表皮,不要除去其身體任何一部份.餵飼前,你可以先把完整食物切成小塊,但須碓保烏龜吃下所有食物以保持均衡營養特別是鈣質,餵飼龜兒前,可以先用貓乾糧餵飽這些(動物飼料)以提高牠們的營養價值.若自行捕足動物飼料,須確保牠們沒有受感染,,一般來說,在越偏避, 越渺無人煙的地方就越理想,.假如龜兒願意進食蔬菜,那樣急凍雜菜,紅籮蔔及綠葉便是很好的選擇,在有緊急的需要時可暫以罐頭貓糧鍡飼龜兒.但由於罐頭脂肪含量高,所以不宜作為龜日常的糧食,每隔兩星期,應該在龜兒的食物上加,(如Nutrobal)之類的爬蟲之類的專用的鈣粉或維他命粉,以保持營養均衡.肉類(如豬肉和牛肉)的鈣質,維他命及纖維含量均十分低,而且亦會致病.因此,不應以肉類作為龜兒的食物.
2.缸:龜是水陸兩棲動物,最理想的居住環境當然是有水有陸地,所以缸內的水裏有一定的深度,好讓牠們在內暢泳,還要放入石頭,讓牠們在需要時爬到石頭上休息.缸外四周環境需保持寧靜,在夜間亦須保持黑暗.
3.光線:來自太陽或紫外光燈的紫外光對龜有益處,但要留意玻璃及膠片會過濾紫光,因此光源必須直接照射才有效.請依照生產商指示按時更換紫外光燈炮(一般每六月更換一次).照射時,龜兒與光源須保持12吋的距離.讓龜兒晒太陽時要小心,因過熱的情況可能在迅間出現.
4.清潔:最好用另一個小缸來餵飼龜兒,以保持原來盛龜的缸內的水質清潔.餵飽龜兒後,宣待龜兒排池物完畢並替牠沖洗乾淨後,才把牠放回原來的缸中.為免龜兒受到沙門氏菌的威脅,必須時常保持環境衛生.
5.溫度:在夏天,四週環境的溫度對大部份龜種來說是合宜的.但是,室內的溫度往往因為空調的綠故而變得過低.因此.當開啟空調或在冬天時,便需要如設發熱裝置.例如用特別燈泡照射在一塊石頭便可以成(熱點)讓龜兒取暖.亦可以在缸內製造一個溫度漸變區.橫誇兩區,讓龜兒自行選取喜愛的溫度.請向信譽良好的爬蟲動物用品店查詢發熱及紫外線產品資料.你可以閱讀有關養龜的書籍和游覽互聯網來學習養龜知識,以保龜兒生活健康

FEEDING: Offer a wide variety of whole natural foods such as whole little fish, prawns, earthworms, slugs, snails, crabs, tadpoles, frogs and insects (mealworms, grasshoppers, and beatles)”Whole” means with the shell and skin, do not remove any parts. You can chop them up before feeding to make them smaller, but make sure all the bits are eaten. This is important to “balance” the diet, especially with regards to calcium levels. These “food animals” shold to fed on cat biscuits before feeding as full gut will increase the nutritional value. If you collect them yourself, make sure they could not be contaminated with poison. Generally the “wilder” the place the better. Vegetables such as frozen mixed vegetables, carrots and green leafs are excellent if the terrapin will take them. In an emergency tinned cat food can be occasionally offered, but is too high in fat for routine use. Twice a week food items should be dusted with a reptile calcium/vitamin powder such as “Nutrobal” before feeding to balance the diet. Meat (such as pork & beef) is low in calcium and vitamins and libre and will lead to disease and should not be given.
2.TANK:These terrapins ideally should have the choice between water and land. A tank containing water deep enough for them to swim around with a choice of rocks to rest on is perfect. The tank should be in a reasonably quiet place, and it should be dark at night.
3.LIGHT:Ultra violet light, either from the sum or a special light is beneficial. Note that UV light will be filtered out by glass or plastic, so sunlight must be direct. UV bulbs should be changed frequently according to manufacturers instructions (generally every six months) and be about 12 “above your pet. Watch out for overheathing in the sun, it can happen every quickly.
4.CLEANLINESS: Feed your terrapin in a separate small tank as this will keep the water clean. Wait until it defaccates then rinse before placing back in tank. Salmonella must always be considered a risk, observe good hygiene.
5.TEMPERATURE: Environmental temperature in summertime is fine for most species. Most Hong Kong flats are too cold (with strong air con.)With air con, or in winter heating is advised. A special light bulb over I rock will provide a “hot spot” for basking. It is good to have a :temperature gradient” across the cage to allow the terrapin to choose the temperature...
