How do Brazilian turtles distinguish between male and female, and how do Brazilian turtles distingui

Males are small in size and have long toe claw tips.

To put it simply. There are four ways to divide a tortoise into male and female. Construction site front claw claw. From. The purpose is short.

Identification methods: 1. Morphological observation and comparison. Female turtles:

The dorsal carapace is short and wide, the ventral carapace is flat and unindented, the tail is thin and short, the base of the tail is thin, the cloaca is close to the posterior edge of the carapace, and the notch formed by the two anal shields of the ventral carapace is shallow, and the notch angle is larger. Male turtle: the dorsal carapace is long and narrow, the ventral carapace ** is slightly inward, the tail is thick and long, the base of the tail is thick, the cloaca is far from the posterior edge of the carapace, the two anal shields of the ventral carapace form a deep notch, and the notch angle is small.

2. Identification of limb test methods. Gently turn the turtle over and touch the amplitude of the abdominal carapace with your fingers, the male turtle with a slightly concave abdominal carapace and the female turtle with a flat abdominal carapace.

The male and female of Brazilian turtles are mainly distinguished from the tail, abdominal carapace, cloaca pores, and patterns.

Tail:If it is a male Brazilian turtle, you can see a longer tail with a thick and long tail, while the female turtle has a much shorter tail and a thin and short tail.

Abdominal carapace:For the male Brazilian turtle, its dorsal carapace is longer and narrower, and the abdominal carapace ** is slightly inverted, while the female Brazilian tortoise has a shorter and wider dorsal carapace, which can be seen flat in the position of the abdominal carapace, **There is no depression, and you can feel it by touching it with your hands.

Cloaca pores:For male turtles, the cloaca is on its tail, far from the posterior edge of the carapace, and the hole shape is elongated, while the location of the excretory pore of the female turtle is close to the carapace, farther and closer to the posterior edge of the carapace, and the hole shape is round.

Pattern:You can pay attention to the pattern on its abdomen, if you see a sparse pattern, it is a male turtle, if it is a dense abdomen, it is a female turtle.

Habits of Brazilian tortoise:

Brazilian turtles live in water and amphibious, often living in rivers, lakes and streams, and can forage not far from the water shore; sunbathing in the sun and moonlight; During the breeding season, they land to lay eggs. The turtle is agile, adaptable, warm-loving and cold-sensitive, the survival temperature is 2-38, the optimal growth temperature is between 26-30, and the temperature difference between day and night should not be greater than 4.

Look at the tail Otherwise, look at the abdominal carapace of the turtle, the protruding is the female turtle, and the concave is the male, because it is convenient for the male turtle to mate (it can crawl on the back of the female turtle, and the recessed place can buckle the dorsal carapace of the female turtle).

It depends on how big the Brazilian turtle is, and the small ones can't be distinguished, so you have to wait for them to grow up. In addition to the tail and claws, the slender claws are males, and the claws are thick and short female turtles: the base of the tail is thin, and the cloaca is from the posterior edge of the ventral carapace.

Don't be so troublesome Look directly at the bottom plate of the turtle (if it is a female, the bottom plate is flat.) If the bottom plate is recessed, it is male).
