1. How to divide male and female Chinese flower turtles It is difficult to distinguish male and female Chinese flower turtles in their infancy. If breeders want to distinguish their male and female, they can judge them by their size, tail and drainage hole when they are adults.
1. Look at the body shape: The male and female body shapes of Chinese turtles raised in the same environment are different after adulthood. Generally speaking, the female turtle will be larger and weigh about 4.5 kg in adulthood. Male turtles will be smaller and weigh about 1 kg in adulthood.
2, look at the tail: Breeders can also judge by their tails. Normally, the tails of female turtles are relatively thin and short. The tail of male turtles is thick and long.
3. Look at the bleaching hole: To distinguish the male and female of Chinese turtle, observing the bleaching hole is a more accurate method. Normally, the drain hole of female turtle is close to abdominal armor, while that of male turtle is close to tail.
2. Can male and female Chinese turtles be raised togetherChinese turtles and female turtles can be raised together, because Chinese turtles prefer to live in groups, so they can live together with different genders. However, when raising together, attention should be paid to the ratio of male to female, and the ratio of male to female should be 1: 2 or 1: 3. Generally speaking, 2-3 Chinese turtles are most suitable for raising together.
