? The Brazilian tortoise usually starts mating in April, and can lay eggs in about 30-40 days after successful mating, so in general, the Brazilian tortoise starts laying eggs in June-August. Brazilian tortoises usually start laying eggs in the evening or early morning. Before laying eggs, they will look for a suitable place to lay eggs, and they will be very irritable and eat less. When they
find the right place to lay their eggs, they will lie still beside them. When they are about to lay eggs, they will dig out a nest with their limbs and lay their eggs in it. After laying, they bury the eggs with soil and flatten them with plastron before leaving. The eggs produced will depend on the temperature and humidity of nature for incubation.
? The incubation time of Brazilian tortoises is closely related to the environment. If the temperature and humidity can meet the requirements of incubation, then they only need about 50-60 days to hatch. If the temperature and humidity can not meet the requirements of incubation, the incubation time will be extended by 7-10 days. If the surrounding environment is bad, it may not be able to hatch successfully. If breeders want to increase the hatching rate of Brazilian turtles, they need to ensure that the temperature is above 25 C and the humidity is about 80%.
