Brazilian tortoises can cross with other species of tortoises, but they can only cross with similar species of tortoises, not all turtles. Because different breeds have different genes, they can't reproduce offspring after mating. Even if they can breed offspring, they will not have the ability to breed like mules.

The turtles suitable for crossing with Brazilian tortoises are Brazilian chicken turtles, Brazilian color turtles, Brazilian brocade turtles, Brazilian yellow-eared turtles, flame turtles, doughnut turtles and so on. These tortoises and Brazilian tortoises have similar genes and can be crossed to produce offspring.

1. Choose adult Brazilian tortoises: It usually takes about 10 years for Brazilian tortoises to fully mature, and breeders can choose mature Brazilian tortoises to be raised together. Usually in April every year, they begin to mate.

2, spawning: Brazilian tortoises will lay eggs about a month after successful mating. At this time, breeders need to prepare a soft sand for them, so that they will dig their own holes and lay eggs.

3. Hatching: After Brazilian tortoises lay eggs, breeders need to take out their eggs for artificial hatching. When hatching, the breeder needs to keep the temperature in the incubator between 28-30 ℃ and the humidity before 85%-90%. The incubation time takes about 2 months.
