1. Is the flame turtle redder and redder The color of the flame turtle may be redder and redder, because they begin to develop color when they are born about 4 months ago. In the color development stage, the yellow-green color on their carapace will fade and turn into black-red, which looks like a flame from a distance, which is also the origin of their name.
After the color development stage, the body color of flame turtles will not change much in general, but they will molt or shed their shells during their growth and development. In the process of molting, if the feeding method is proper, their body color may change, but it will not change in a large area like the color development stage.
2. How to raise flame turtles to be red1. Feeding: Most flame turtles have hair color genes, so the acquired feeding has great influence on their hair color. If breeders want them to develop color, they should feed more shrimps, which can promote the synthesis of pigments. However, breeders can't feed this kind of food for a long time. It's best to mix a variety of foods to ensure their balanced nutrition.
2. Environment: If breeders want flame turtles to develop color, they must ensure that their living environment is comfortable, keep the water temperature between 23-28 ℃ at ordinary times, and keep the water quality clean and fresh, so that flame turtles can develop color better.
