Map turtle is a common turtle species, they can be raised at home, as a pet turtle. They are still very easy to raise, and the difficulty of breeding is relatively low. Their adaptability to the environment is good, their resistance to disease is good, and their life span is relatively long. However, when breeding, special attention should be paid to the problem of water quality, map turtles have higher requirements for water quality and need to be kept clean. Furthermore, when the map turtle is young, the sensitivity to the environment is relatively high, at this time must provide a suitable environment, otherwise the map turtle may also die because of illness.
Many breeders will call the map turtle "husky", and some breeders will call them "nerve turtles", both nicknames have a lot to do with the character of the map turtle. Husky is a kind of dog that we are all very familiar with, their personality is very lively, sometimes they will "tear down the family".
The character of the map turtle is similar to that of the husky. They are very active. Most of the other tortoise species are very quiet in character, and will be very frightened when someone approaches them, and will withdraw their heads into the tortoise shell. In normal times, their activity is not high, and may even remain motionless. But the map tortoise is different, and their activity is very high. If they are mixed, they may play with other turtles. They become restless after their owners approach them. If the owner interacts with them, their enthusiasm will be very high.
