Turtles are also known as golden turtles, grass turtles, mud turtles and mountain turtles. Most turtles are carnivorous, feeding on worms, snails, shrimp and small fish, as well as plant stems and leaves. How do turtles bought on the market divide between male and female? What do you eat that grows fast? How old does it take to lay eggs? How do you raise it? According to Master Liu, a big tortoise farmer, turtles need at least more than 20cm before they can mature sexually before they can lay eggs. It also varies from individual to individual, some turtles eat more, grow bigger, some turtles eat less, and they can lay eggs when they are old. As for the age of turtles, it is a great knowledge, which can not be distinguished by ordinary people, and do not casually listen to the opinions of selling tortoise men. And turtles can lay eggs themselves, just like hens, they can lay eggs regularly, but eggs fertilized by male turtles can hatch young turtles, and eggs that have not been fertilized by male turtles can only be eaten and cannot hatch.

How do turtles bought on the market divide between male and female?

1. Female turtles: the dorsal armour is short and wide, the ventral nail is flat and central without depression, the tail is thin and short, the tail base is thin, the cloacal foramen is close to the posterior edge of the ventral nail, the two anal shields of the ventral nail are shallower and the notch angle is larger.

2. Male tortoise: the dorsal armour is long and narrow, the center of the ventral nail is slightly sunken, the tail is thick and long, the base of the tail is thick, the cloacal foramen is far from the posterior edge of the ventral nail, and the two anal shields of the abdominal nail form a deeper engraving and a smaller angle.

For most species of adult turtles of the same year, the male tortoise is thin and small; the female tortoise is round and large.

3. In addition, mature individuals can be identified by the following methods:

The belly nail of the tortoise is facing up, the thumb and the second middle finger of the left hand oppress the forelimb and head of the tortoise into the shell, and the right hand straightens the tail of the tortoise. If there is a black penis protruding from the cloacal hole of the tortoise, it is male; if the cloacal hole of the tortoise releases bubbles or dilute mucus, it is female.

What does the tortoise eat to grow fast?

1. Know what kind of tortoise is. According to their different living environment, they can be divided into five types: terrestrial turtles, aquatic turtles, semi-aquatic turtles, marine turtles and benthic turtles. They eat different things.

2. The feeding habits of aquatic turtles are generally omnivorous. Most semiaquatic turtles are carnivorous. Most terrestrial turtles are herbivorous. On the other hand, ordinary farmed turtles are omnivorous animals, feeding on animal insects, worms, small fish, shrimp, snails, clams, plant tender leaves, duckweed, melon peel, wheat, rice, weed seeds and so on.

3. If you want the tortoise to grow fast, it should be fed regularly. Combine animal food such as small fish and shrimp with some plant foods such as tender leaves of vegetables, so that the turtle can grow faster.

How to raise turtles?

1. Turtles are amphibians. If they are placed in a pure pool that is not connected to land, stones, bricks and other platforms must be placed in the pool for the turtle to sun its back and rest. In the hole where the tortoise likes to hide, bricks can be used to build a nest for the tortoise to improve its sense of security.

2. Turtles' eating behavior is mostly carried out in the water, and sometimes on the shore. The food can be put directly into the water, or the food can be placed in the shallow water or near the water slope. When feeding the shrimp, you should feed it with the shell to supplement the calcium, but cut off the spikes of the shrimp head.

3. Turtles like to eat meat food. Small turtles are mainly meat, and when they are older, they can eat vegetarian food. Generally, they can be fed to small fish, shrimp, earthworms, Loach, animal offal, snails, crickets, a small amount of red meat, bananas, melon skins, and so on.

4. Turtles have to bask in the sun, but not directly in hot weather. It is best to use a semi-shaded environment. The maximum temperature of the turtle raising water temperature should not exceed 37 degrees. In summer, attention should be paid to the pool sunshade. Large-leaf plants can generally be used for sunshade.

5. Do not feed when the temperature is lower than 20 degrees, otherwise it is easy to cause gastrointestinal diseases such as indigestion. The best temperature for turtles is 25-30 degrees, when they grow the fastest.

6. The higher the temperature, the greater the food intake, but when the temperature is too high, the food intake decreases, and the lower the temperature is, the smaller the food intake is. The fastest temperature for turtles to gain weight is 28030 degrees.
