Brazilian tortoises Brazilian tortoises will pair up by themselves when they are mature. After successful pairing, they will choose to mate at 18-19 o'clock in the evening. When mating, the male will discharge sperm into the cloaca of the female, thus completing the mating. About a month after mating, female Brazilian tortoises will lay eggs. Before laying eggs, they will choose a suitable land, then dig up and lay eggs in the dug pit. After laying eggs, they fill the hole with soil and let the fertilized eggs hatch by themselves. Brazilian tortoises breed from May to August every year, and each female Brazilian tortoise can lay 3-19 eggs at a time.
Brazilian tortoises after breeding 1. If you arrange the environment for Brazilian tortoises to lay eggs in advance, you can choose to let them hatch naturally, but natural hatching depends on natural temperature, humidity and air, so the success rate is not as high as artificial hatching.
2. The breeder can also make the incubator by himself. First prepare a wooden box of suitable size, put a layer of fine sand at the bottom, then put the eggs of Brazilian tortoises evenly on the sand according to the distance of 2 centimeters, then cover them with sand, and then put a layer of absorbent sponge on the sand. The temperature of the incubator should be controlled between 22 and 33 degrees, and the humidity of the sand should be controlled between 8% and 12%. Generally, it can be hatched in about 55-65 days, which has a higher success rate than natural hatching.
