The Indian star tortoise can live up to 30-50 years in captivity. Whether the living environment of the Indian star tortoise is reasonable and its eating habits are the main factors to ensure its healthy growth and longevity. The Indian star tortoise is sensitive to changes in temperature and humidity, and unreasonable regulation may lead to diseases such as pneumonia or stones. .

How

The Indian star tortoise is mainly produced in northern and southern India and all over Sri Lanka. The temperature is high all year round, so when we raise the Indian star turtle, the temperature of the breeding box should not be lower than 25 degrees, and the temperature difference between morning and evening should not be too large, basically keep it at 28 degrees or a little higher. Because the origin is divided into dry season and rainy season, star turtles are not very sensitive to humidity, as long as they are not too humid, they can tolerate it.

From the origin of the Indian star tortoise, all kinds of weeds are the main food, so in order to ensure the nutritional balance of the Indian star tortoise, we can try to feed some weeds, wild vegetables, or mixed with sparse vegetables feed together.
