How old are the yellow edged turtle seedlings raised in the soil, and how long does the yellow edged

In fact, there are several steps to go from the hatch to the formal fixed environment from the shell to the formal fixed environment.

Stage 1. The first step is that after the shell, the newly hatched yellow edge seedlings often have not been closed in the navel and even have a little yolk. At this time, we need to use such a small box, put a layer of shallow water at the bottom of the box, wash the yellow edge seedlings out of the tank and put them in.

The density should not be too high, just place the box in a dark place. Change the water once a day, and generally the yellow edge seedlings can completely close the navel in 2-5 days after the shell.

After 5 days, you can start feeding Huang Yuan Miao. You can start feeding with the closed shell turtle food, feed every day, and after 3 days of feeding, you will almost switch to the second stage of feeding mode.

Stage 2. As a unique breeding method of Xingui, we do not use the water breeding method in the initial breeding of Huangyuan seedlings. Although water culture can maintain high humidity, it is easy to cause turtles and seedlings to bite each other's tails.

If the temperature difference changes greatly, it will cause the turtle seedlings to catch a cold, rot skin and other conditions. We use the soil cultivation method, which is the special soil for reptiles in Yugui.

There are different opinions on how to raise turtle seedlings. One view is that the yellow-edged turtle seedlings should be raised at high humidity, and it is best to raise them directly in water rather than soil. Another view is that the yellow-edged turtle seedlings can be soil-raised, but some conditions need to be met.

The first point of view is that the yellow-edged turtle seedlings should be raised at high humidity, and it is best to raise them directly in water. The basis for this view is that the habit of the yellow-edged turtle is to prefer a moist environment, and that hydroculture can better maintain the humidity of the environment, which is conducive to the growth of yellow-edged turtle seedlings.

The second point of view is that the yellow-margined turtle seedlings can be raised in the soil, but some conditions need to be met. For example, the moisture of the soil needs to be controlled to maintain proper moisture. In addition, it is necessary to provide a suitable breeding environment, such as temperature, light, ventilation, etc.

In general, the breeding method of yellow-edged turtle seedlings should be selected according to their habits and breeding environment. Whether it is water or soil, it is necessary to provide a suitable breeding environment and pay attention to maintaining the hygiene and safety of the environment.

Bask for about 20 minutes a day.

Yellow-edged turtle breeding method:

1. Environment: The yellow-edged turtle is a kind of semi-terrestrial turtle, so in the process of arranging the living environment of the yellow-edged turtle, the ratio of water and land should be controlled, and the ratio is generally about two to three, and then pay more attention to the humidity and try to maintain a high humidity level.

2. Water quality: When breeding yellow-edged turtles, it is necessary to ensure that the water quality is clean, and the water can be changed 1-2 times a week, and then each time the water is changed, one-third or one-quarter of the water can be changed.

3. Food: In order to ensure the healthy growth of the yellow-edged turtle, when feeding the yellow-edged turtle, it is necessary to pay attention to the problem of meat and vegetarian matching, in addition to vegetables and other vegetarians, you can also feed some lean meat, dried shrimp and other live bait, which can effectively promote the healthy growth of the yellow-edged turtle.

4. Light: If you often take the yellow-edged turtle to bask in the sun, it can also promote the growth of the yellow-edged turtle, but the sun for the yellow-edged turtle does not need to be too strong, you can go to the sun every afternoon, and then bask for about 20 minutes each time.

The body length of the yellow-edged turtle is about 17-20 cm when it is an adult, but the size of the captive-bred yellow-edged closed-shell turtle will be smaller, about 11-17 cm.

There are many reasons that affect the body size of the yellow-margined closed-shell turtle, such as genes. If they have better genes, they can also develop a little bigger.

The breeding method also has a greater impact on the body length of the yellow-edged closed-shell turtle, and if they can be guaranteed to live in a comfortable environment, then their body size will be larger.

When breeding yellow-edged closed-shell turtles, if you want to make them larger, you need to pay attention to the comfortable environment in which they live. They prefer a terrestrial environment, and it is best to prepare a larger terrestrial environment for them when breeding. In addition, when breeding, they should be fed enough food, only when the food and nutrition are sufficient, their body shape can develop better.

Yellow-edged turtles can feed on land, and keepers can feed in a terrestrial environment, which can avoid polluting the water quality.

Review:The compass can be separated from male and female at a very young age, and the difference between male and female is still relatively large. You can see the position of the cloacal pores, and the male cloacal pores are relatively backward.

Turtle:

Turtles are reptiles of the genus Turtleidae. The head is small, less than 1 4 as wide as the dorsal carapace, the anterior part of the top of the head is smooth, and the posterior part ** has fine-grained scales; The snout is obliquely cut medially, and the sheath of the beak margin is thinner; The angle between the left and right teeth of the lower jaw is less than 90°. The dorsal carapace is flattened, with 3 longitudinal ridges, the limbs are slightly flattened, and the fingers and toes are webbed, and there are claws.

The tail is shorter and smaller. The dorsal carapace is brown, the ventral carapace and nail bridge are brownish-yellow, and each shield has large black-brown spots. head olive or black-brown; There are yellow-striped yellow stripes and macula on the side of the head and pharynx.

Find a quiet place to recuperate, and don't rush to bathe and feed wild potatoes. The next day, bathe the turtle and wait for the turtle to poop. For a week after returning home, I bathed the turtle every day.

The new turtles are not adapted to the environment, and wait for the turtles to arrive at home for a week before feeding them. The main food for feeding is bread worms, earthworms, river shrimp, locusts, pupae and centipedes; Beef and chicken stoves are mainly meat-based.

Extended information: The yellow-edged closed-shell turtle is also known as the yellow-edged box turtle. Common name:

splint turtles, snake turtles, broken plate turtles; Turtle family, closed-shell turtle genus. It is mainly distributed in southern China, Japan and other regions, and is widely distributed. Brownish-red with a light brown ridge.

The abdomen is brownish-black, and the ventral margin of the dorsal carapace is yellow. The dorsal and ventral carapace is connected by ligaments, and the anterior and posterior lobes of the ventral carapace are also connected by ligaments, which can be closed upwards respectively, and the head, neck, limbs and tail can be retracted into the human shell for protection. The palate is hooked.

The anal shield is single, with a longitudinal slit at the front that does not reach the end.

Water temperature: Yellow-edged turtles prefer to grow in water between 28-30, and keepers need to install heating equipment for them in spring and autumn and when there is a large temperature difference between morning and evening.

Water quality: Yellow edge turtles like clean and refreshing water, and need to change the water regularly when breeding to keep the water clean.

Feeding: You can choose fish, shrimp, and meat to feed the yellow-edged turtle, and feed it with some vegetables and fruits, or you can feed it with synthetic feed. This ensures a balanced nutrition.

Yellow-edged turtles will only close their shells after they reach adulthood, and yellow-edged turtles are also known as yellow-edged closed-shell turtles, and they live in different environments and have different adult times, so the time of closure is also different. If the yellow-margined turtle lives in a comfortable environment, it is possible that they will complete the closure at the juvenile stage. Closed-shell turtles are a major feature of yellow-edged turtles, mainly because their bodies are connected to the dorsal carapace with bony bridges, and when they are retracted into the shell, the whole body seems to be closed, so they are called closed-shell turtles.
