Under normal circumstances, there will not be more and more thorns in Buddha crocodile turtles, and their thorns will become thinner and thinner with the growth of their body size. Because their thorns are innate, more thorns and less thorns have a lot to do with genes. As they develop, the thorns on their heads will become thinner and thinner. Because they molt during their growth and development, the cuticle of their heads will fall off together every time they molt, so their thorns will become thinner and thinner in adulthood. Although their spines have a great relationship with genes, breeders can stimulate them properly during their growth and development, and they can also increase their spines.
2. How do Buddha crocodile turtles raise more head thorns1. Environment: If you want to make Buddha crocodile turtles have more head thorns, you must ensure their living environment is comfortable. At ordinary times, it is best to keep the water temperature between 28-30 ℃, and the water quality should be clean and refreshing. In particular, the space in the container must be sufficient. If conditions permit, it is best to raise them alone in bare tanks.
2. Feeding: Besides the environment, feeding is also a more important point. Breeders can feed more yellow crayfish, which can effectively stimulate them to spine. You can also feed some loach, fish, shrimp, chicken, beef, etc. to ensure their daily nutrition. The frequency of feeding can also be higher, and it is best to feed it once a day, with 7-80% satiety every time.
