There are many kinds of tortoises that can be hybridized with flame tortoises, first of all, Brazilian tortoises and Brazilian yellow-eared tortoises. Flame tortoises are a subspecies of Brazilian tortoises, so it is very suitable to hybridize with Brazilian tortoises. Secondly, there are other tortoises of the tortoise family, such as the golden tortoise, the chicken tortoise, the map tortoise, the doughnut tortoise, and the colored tortoise. These tortoises are good at swimming and can live in the water for a long time. They are also similar to the flame tortoise in their habits and are suitable for hybridization.

1. what kind of tortoise can the flame tortoise hybridize

with? There are many tortoises that the flame tortoise can hybridize with. The common ones are the Brazilian tortoise, the Brazilian yellow-eared tortoise and other species of the Brazilian tortoise.

2. How does the flame turtle breed

? When the flame turtle is in heat, it will find its own partner. After the match is successful, they will choose the mating place together, and then mate. When mating, the male turtle will lie on the back of the female fish, and the male turtle will not come down until the mating is completed. About a month after successful mating, the female tortoise will lay eggs. At this time, the breeder needs to prepare a place for laying eggs. Because the female tortoise will dig up the soil and lay eggs in the dug pit, the breeder needs to prepare a deep soil laying area. After laying eggs,

female tortoises bury their eggs with soil. Keepers need to carefully remove the eggs and then incubate them artificially, which can improve their chances of hatching. When hatching artificially, ensure that the surrounding environment is suitable, about 2-3 months, the eggs will hatch into young turtles.
