1. How to raise grass turtles to ink faster 1. Select male turtles with ink genes: grass turtles and female turtles cannot ink, because even if their carapace turns black, their skin and eyes are still other colors. Therefore, when breeders choose, it is best to choose some darker male turtles, so as to ensure that they have a greater chance of inking.
2. Simulate the native environment: If you want the turtle to ink faster, you should try your best to restore the wild environment. When breeding, breeders need to create an amphibious environment for them. They can build a balcony or gentle slope in the container and plant some green plants around them. In addition, it is necessary to ensure that the water quality they live in is clean and the water temperature is stable.
3. Feeding a variety of foods: Many breeders will feed a lot of foods with high calcium content in order to make grass turtles ink. However, feeding the same kind of food for a long time will cause their single nutrition and affect their growth and development. Breeders need to feed according to their eating habits, and it is best to match animal feed with plant feed, so as to ensure comprehensive nutrition.
2. When does the grass turtle start to inkThe time for the grass turtle to ink is not fixed. Generally speaking, as long as it is a mature male turtle, it may ink. Grass turtles don't ink quickly. Generally speaking, their ink starts from the eyes, and then develops to the neck, limbs and carapace.
