You must consider carefully before choosing to raise Florida snapping turtles. Because they are very lethal, they should be kept independently. Even if they are similar in size, try not to have more than two of them together, and provide more space. In the case of artificial breeding, if live bait (such as fish, crayfish, etc.) is not provided at the initial stage, it is difficult to start eating, but after some bait taming, most of them will eat artificial feed.

Although the Florida snapping turtle is quite hardy, the temperature should not be lower than 15 ℃. When individuals of the same species are of the same size, they can be bred together, but sufficient space must be provided. If smaller individuals are placed later, they are more likely to be eaten, so special attention should be paid.
