3. Female turtle: 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 large. Male tortoise:

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 cloacal foramen is far from the posterior edge of the carapace, and the notch formed by the two anal shields of the ventral carapace is deep, and the notch angle is small.

According to the tail, the female soft-shelled turtle is generally inside the skirt, and then the tail of the male is generally exposed on the outside.

1. The female tail is short and cannot naturally extend out of the skirt, while the male tail is long and pointed, and can naturally extend out of the skirt.

2. The dorsal carapace of the female is approximately round and oval, and the rear end of the male is oblong and oval wider than the front end.

According to the back of the nail and the color.

First of all, it is necessary to look at the color of the back of the soft-shelled turtle, the clear soft-shelled soft-shelled turtle with a medium-blue shell is of better quality than the yellow-sand soft-shelled soft-shelled turtle with a yellow dorsal shell. Secondly, the soft-shelled turtle should be moderately tall, and the volume should not be too large, and the general weight of 700 800 grams is the best.

1.The back of the captive-bred soft-shelled turtle is rough and dull, and it feels uneven and prickly when touched by hand, while the back of the wild soft-shelled turtle is very shiny and smooth to touch.

2.It is the color of captivity is mostly dark black, hypertrophied, and a lot of fat can be seen in the dissection, while the color of the wild nail's back and nail bottom is mostly dark yellow, and the limbs are carefully observed, ** is also light yellow, and there is a lot of oil in the dissection.

3.After processing and cooking in captivity, the carapace will be broken with teeth, and the bone will be very loose, while the wild carapace is very hard, which is completely different from the raised.
