1. When will crocodile turtles lay eggs Crocodile turtles begin to lay eggs after maturity, and most cultured crocodile turtles can mature in 4-5 years. When crocodile turtles reach adulthood, they will start mating in the right season. They mate at different times in different temperatures and regions. If it is a crocodile turtle of origin, most of them breed from April to November. If it is in most parts of our country, it begins to breed from May to August. Normally, the month after successful mating is the specific time when crocodile turtles lay eggs.
In addition, the temperature also has a great influence on the reproduction of crocodile turtles. If they live in a warmer environment, they will reproduce earlier. If they live in a cooler environment, they will reproduce later. Moreover, crocodile turtles lay eggs more than once a year, and they will lay eggs many times.
2. How to hatch the eggs laid by crocodile turtles1. Prepare the hatching environment: After the crocodile turtles lay eggs, the breeder needs to incubate artificially. When hatching the eggs of crocodile turtles, the breeder needs to prepare a special incubator, put some sand in it, and finally put the eggs on it. The temperature in the incubator should be controlled at about 25-30 ℃ and the humidity should be controlled at 80%-85%.
2. Regular inspection: In order to improve the hatching rate of crocodile turtle eggs, it is best for breeders to check them every day. If the sand turns white, it means that it is short of water, and the breeder needs to sprinkle water immediately. Also use a flashlight to check every day. If eggs are found to be bad, they need to be taken out immediately to avoid affecting other eggs.
