1. How do crocodile turtles distinguish male and female 1. Look at their mouths: The mouths of male and female crocodile turtles are different, and the mouths of male turtles have lower hooks, which will be obvious in adulthood. The mother turtle's mouth has no hook.
2, look at the tail: The tails of crocodile turtles are also different, but it will take at least one year for them to be born by tail. The tail of crocodile turtle is thick and long, while that of female turtle is thin and short.
3. Look at the release hole: The release hole position of male and female crocodile turtles is also different. The release hole of male turtles is near the tail, and the tail of female turtles is near the abdominal armor.
4. Look at the color of tongue: The color of tongue varies with the sex of crocodile turtle. Generally speaking, the tongue of female turtle is deep red, and that of male turtle is light red. However, this method of discrimination is not particularly accurate, and breeders need to judge according to other characteristics.
2. Can the male and female crocodile turtles be raised togetherThe male and female crocodile turtles cannot be raised together. First of all, they are large in size and need large space for activities in adulthood. Secondly, they are irritable. They may not have much problem when they are raised together in childhood, but they are prone to fight in adulthood. Finally, crocodile turtles have strong metabolic ability, and if they are raised together, they will easily pollute the water quality.
