Hello friends, I also like to raise turtles, and I have raised a lot of turtles, including this one.
This turtle is commonly known as the Brazilian turtle, also known as the red-eared turtle, which is native to the Mississippi River basin in the United States and is a water turtle.
Brazilian tortoises are very easy to raise and very leathery.
There are three types of tortoises: tortoises, which eat vegetables and, as the name suggests, live on land.
Water turtles, almost all water turtles eat meat, as long as adult turtles, old turtles, only occasionally eat some aquatic plants. Lives in water most of the time, but prefers to climb out of rocks above the surface of the water to dry his back to promote calcium absorption.
Amphibian turtles: live most of the time on land, but often go to shallow waters and drink water to bathe.
The yellowing of the shell of this Brazilian turtle is caused by long-term feeding and poor quality turtle food. Long-term feeding turtle food is not good for health.
When it wakes up from hibernation, feed it some fish and shrimp, so that the turtle shell can turn green, the color is thick, and the red stripe on the head is very bright.
A few reminders for you.
The Brazilian turtle has a decreased appetite below 15 degrees, moves slowly, and does not eat or drink below 12 degrees, and closes its eyes and enters a state of hibernation.
The most appetizing stage is at 28-32 degrees.
Brazilian turtles like to tan their backs to promote calcium absorption, and usually feed more fish and shrimp, and the color will become greener. The head stripes on the head are more colorful.
Make a pebble high above the water in the water, or sink wood, and dry its back, and you're good to go.
Don't get sunburned in summer, it's easy to get heat stroke. In the summer, put a water lily in the tank and give it its choice, it will hide underneath when it is hot.
In addition, don't feed cooked meat and fatty meat, which is easy to indigestion and seriously causes enteritis.
Brazilian turtle female turtles can generally grow to 3-4 catties without a problem, and male tortoises are generally around 2 catties.
You can mate and breed in five years, haha.
Okay, it's all typed word by word, if you still don't understand something, you can ask me at any time, you must be in time! Hope, thank you!

There are so many types of turtles... It can be roughly divided into three types, water turtles, semi-water turtles and tortoises. Water turtles are relatively easy to raise, and tortoises are the most difficult to raise. If it's a turtle in your hand, you might as well send a**, I'll help you see what kind of breed it is.

From the earliest discovery of tiger striped grass, there are many varieties that have been discovered or bred by cultivating Qingstool so far.
Yellow flesh grass, the characteristics are not obvious, it can be said to be a slight variation, the color near the limbs and armpits of the hands, feet and limbs is lighter than the ordinary flesh color, and the rest is no different from ordinary grass. Inherited from genetic instability.
Tiger stripes, main features: dark stripes on both sides of the eyes that extend to the neck. There is more melanin on the top of the head. The flesh color is lighter and more yellow than that of ordinary grass turtles. Genetically unstable, the posthumous travel is blind.
Zebra. As the name suggests, patterns appear in the form of spots, spots, and lines. Genes are inherited stably.
Due to the coefficient of variation, parental, gender and other factors, the form of presentation is also different. With the continuous improvement of the coefficient of variation, the flesh color is getting lighter and lighter, the melanin is getting less and less, and the genes are becoming more and more stable.

Summary. Dear, I'm glad to answer your <>
You can distinguish the species of turtles in the following ways: 1. Look at the body shape of the turtle, generally thick is on land, thin is in the water. 2. Look at the turtle's nose, generally the one who wins the hook nose is on land, and other water. 3. Look at the turtle's tail, the tail of the tortoise is generally short and thick, and the water is slender.
4. Looking at the turtle's forefeet, the forelimbs of tortoises are generally longer and stronger, and the opposite is true for turtles. 5. Looking at the hind feet of the tortoise, the hind limbs of the tortoise are generally like elephant legs. Turtles maybe.
6. Look at the claws, the claws of the water turtle are sharp and webbed, and the sharp and barbed shape is because the water turtle is generally carnivorous, which is easy to prey on and tear meat, and the webbed is naturally for swimming.

7. Look at the eyes, the pupils of the turtle are small and sharp, and the tortoise basically can't see the clear boundary of the pupil, which is completely black. 8. Looking at the scales, tortoise scales are rough and thick, the reason is to keep as much water as possible and protect themselves from other land animals. The scales of the turtle are delicate and smooth, in order to reduce the resistance when swimming.
9. Looking at the walking posture, a healthy tortoise will use its limbs to prop up its entire body off the ground and walk calmly and steadily, so it is almost impossible to hear the sound of walking. Terrapids, on the other hand, have a harder time walking on land, because their limbs are shorter, their strength is not enough, and their joints are bent differently than tortoises, so they will constantly make the sound of their belly armor hitting the ground when walking, and their movements are clumsy.

The male and female of the turtle are judged by the length of its tail (long is male, short is female), or its ventral carapace (concave is male, flat is female), or its cloaca (beyond the dorsal carapace is male, vice versa). However, the above judgment methods are accurate only by sub-adult or adult, and if it is a juvenile, the above criteria should not be used. In addition, the juveniles can be identified by comparison, that is, if the reactions of all aspects are different, the probability of a male and female pair is relatively increased.
Because males are naturally more active, both are placed on the ground at the same time, and the first to move is usually male. The anal shield can also be compared, with the ventral carapace closest to the tail. If the angle of the opening is small, it is usually female, and vice versa.
In the past, a master taught me a method to identify people who are difficult to judge gender from their appearance, for your reference. It is to grasp the tortoise's dorsal carapace from above with your hands, so that the tortoise's limbs are suspended in the air, and if its tail is hooked downward and forward (as it was during mating), it is almost certainly male. Box turtles are not applicable.

Here's how to tell the male and female turtles:1. Look at the body type, it is mainly used on turtles of the same age, male turtles are a little thin, and female turtles are larger. >>>More
In terms of feeding, turtles can be fed with small fish and shrimp or vegetables and fruits. If you are keeping a shallow turtle, the water level is just above the turtle's back, and if you are a deep water turtle, the water level is three places above the turtle. In terms of feeding, turtle food is fed with small fish and shrimp. >>>More
It is said that the water is over the back and put it in a dark place to rest, which is suitable for low temperatures. The temperature is high, so it's easy to say.
If you think your own turtle eats enough in the summer and has enough stored fat to survive the winter, it's best to let him hibernate naturally. It would be nice to keep the temperature at around 10 degrees. Prepare a container for him to spend the winter, it doesn't matter how big it is. >>>More
