Jammers sent in lots of great entries for the most recent News Crew Assignment! There were so many good articles about pet turtle care, but the winning entry was sent in byMiss Jellybelly! Read Miss Jellybelly’s article below, and check back later this week for the next News Crew Assignment!
Turtles are very fascinating animals! You may even want one. But there are many things you need to do to care for your turtle and make it the healthiest turtle!
First you need to set up a tank with at least a 40 gallon capacity with separate land and water areas, as well as a sun lamp for your turtle to warm itself under. Make sure a turtle has enough room to live in, making sure it has enough light, shade and clean water. Make sure it has the food that are healthy for them.
You also need to clean your turtles bedding at least once a week and the tank once a month. Also change its water daily! Leave your turtle in the cage. The change in temperature between inside and outside the cage is bad for them.
There are many kinds of turtles, but my research shows that the best kind of turtle to have as a pet is a Painted turtle. They are easy to care for, but are very interesting pets.
Remember that all turtle are unique and need a lot of assistance, but with the help and care from their owners, they can be a VERY healthy turtle and live for a long time!
