1.It is recommended to raise small crocodiles, because large predators have a long growth cycle, and it is difficult to raise and breed without certain technology, and the climate is not harmful to the breeding of small evil ghosts.
2.Yes, crocodiles grow fast, are easy to breed, and have few diseases.
3.Hormone feed can grow to 10-20 kg after 1-2 years.
4.No, the wild giant snapping turtle is protected in the United States and not listed in China.
5.It is recommended that you go to Guangzhou to buy how cheap it is.

1.It's a good fit, and it's grown in the tropics of South America.
2.Yes, what should I do if I have been raised since I was a child, and I am still protected! The intensity of the management of the relevant departments is small.
up to 10 years, the minimum is also to breed for 3 years (I raised 3 small 7 years to have a medium-sized plate as big, the big one has a large medium basin as big as it is estimated to be dozens of years old).
4.Special breeding is epidemic prevention qualifications are positive Wild animal domestication is There is a series of positive You go to the Forestry Bureau to consult 5Flower and bird market up reptile shop you have to be with it and partner specifically. Don't practice it yourself.

The big snapping turtle and the small snapping turtle are good or bad, mainly depends on personal preferences, from the perspective of personality, the personality of the big snapping turtle is more introverted and timid; Baby snapping turtles, on the other hand, are bolder and more active. The crocodile carapace of the large snapping turtle is distinct, while the small crocodile is inconspicuous and flat; When the big snapping turtle eats, it opens its mouth and does not move at the bottom of the water, and there is a thin red flesh on its tongue to tease the fish, and the small snapping turtle will take the initiative to chase the food when eating; Large snapping turtles are less courageous, while smaller crocodiles are more courageous.
The crocodile carapace is distinct, and the crocodile is not obvious and flat. The predator eats, opens its mouth and does not move at the bottom of the water, and there is a thin red meat on the tongue to tease the fish, and the crocodile takes the initiative to attack and chase the food. The big crocodiles are less courageous, and the small crocodiles are more daring, but when it comes to fighting, the small crocodiles can't get the big predators.
If you want to breed large or small snapping turtles, it is best to breed only one type and not mix them together. In terms of personality, the big snapping turtle is more introverted and timid; Baby snapping turtles, on the other hand, are bolder and more active. Therefore, if it is a mixed breed, there may be a phenomenon of small snapping turtles bullying large snapping turtles, which will hurt the tail or claws of large snapping turtles.

Difference between dorsal carapaces: The dorsal carapace of large snapping turtles is more pronounced. The carapace of the baby snapping turtle looks relatively flat, as if it has no spikes.
Eating differences: Large snapping turtles generally stay still when eating. The baby snapping turtle is very lively when eating, has a strong appetite for eating, and will take the initiative to eat.
Difference in guts: Large snapping turtles are timid, especially when they first enter a new environment, and will not speak for a long time. Baby snapping turtles are slightly bolder and more adaptable to new environments.
1. The difference between the dorsal carapace: It is easy to distinguish the large snapping turtle and the small snapping turtle through the part of the dorsal armor. The dorsal carapace of the large snapping turtle is more prominent, which can be seen at a glance. The dorsal carapace of the baby snapping turtle is less prominent and looks relatively flat.
2. Eating: There is also a gap between the appearance of the two types of snapping turtles, the appearance of the big snapping turtle eating is not too fierce, and they will generally stay in place when eating, and then move when the food is finished. The baby snapping turtle is different, it will be more lively after seeing food, and will generally take the initiative to attack, and the enthusiasm for eating is relatively high.
3. The difference in guts: the guts of large snapping turtles are relatively small, and the courage of small snapping turtles is relatively large. For example, in a new environment, a large crocodile may not open its mouth to eat for several days, and it is more timid. When a baby snapping turtle enters a new environment, it will quickly open its mouth to eat, and it is not afraid of unfamiliar environments.
1. The baby snapping turtle is fierce, with a longer neck and a faster speed, which can easily hurt people. Large snapping turtles are generally lifeless, almost inactive all day, and when they hunt, they just open their mouths and wait for food to be delivered to their doors.
2. Snapping turtles are generally more ferocious animals, whether you raise a large snapping turtle or a small snapping turtle, you must be careful to avoid hurting people.

One is delicious, the other is unpalatable.
1. Temperature, the temperature at which snapping turtles are suitable for living is 22-28 degrees, which means that they are very sensitive to temperature, and if the temperature is too low, it will cause them to go into hibernation. >>>More
There is only one subspecies of predators.
Large snapping turtles in the wild can reach a length of 70 centimeters or more on their dorsal carapaces. >>>More
1) The tank should be seen by itself If the big snapping turtle is too big, it will be more tiring to hunt the fish (2) The water depth is more than 5 cm (3) The snapping turtle has strong adaptability, is an ectothermic animal, resistant to high temperature and low temperature, can survive in a 5 43 water temperature, but is the most active in 23 38, and the fastest growth rate in 28 3L, enter hibernation when 15 is below, rarely move, 13 or less hibernating, according to the test, it will not freeze to death under the ice layer in the -5 water, and it is safe and sound above 1. Clear, warm water should be provided for large snapping turtles. (4) Do not need to get a big snapping turtle like quiet, dim light (5) The tap water at home contains chlorine, and it is not good to use it directly for fish and turtles, and it can be used after 2-3 days of exposure, or it can be used for a week, of course, if a small amount of tap water is added to the original tank, it is not a big problem (the amount added can not exceed 1 3 of the original water). >>>More
