If the Brazilian turtle is in its infancy, it can be distinguished by its appearance. The back armour of the male turtle is long and narrow, the belly armour is concave inward, the back armour of the female turtle is wide and short, and the belly armour has no depression; Male turtles have relatively short tails; The male turtle's fecundity hole is relatively close to the abdominal armour. After they grow up, in addition to their appearance, they can also see their weight and color. The male turtle is light, and the color will turn black, while the female turtle is not. 1、 How do Brazilian turtles divide male and female? When breeding Brazilian turtles, it is sometimes necessary to distinguish their male and female. Brazilian turtles are distinguished in different ways at different ages.
1. Young turtle stage: when Brazilian turtles are not yet adults, it is difficult to distinguish. Generally speaking, they can only be distinguished by their appearance characteristics. The first is their tortoise shell. The back shell of the male turtle looks long and narrow, and the belly shell has an inward concave part; However, the back armor of female turtles is relatively wide and short, and there is no depression in their abdominal armor. Moreover, their tails are relatively short for males and relatively long for females. You can also see the position of their fecal hole. The male turtle's fecal hole is closer to the abdominal nail, while the female turtle's fecal hole is farther from the abdominal nail.
2. Adult stage: it is easier to distinguish after the Brazilian turtle has grown up. In addition to distinguishing from appearance, it can also be distinguished from weight and color. First of all, their weight is different in adulthood. Generally speaking, the weight of male turtles will not exceed 1 kg, but the weight of female turtles will be 2-4 kg. What's more, the color of male turtles will turn black when they grow up; However, the body color of female turtles will remain unchanged or become lighter brown when they grow up. 2、 Can male and female Brazilian turtles be raised together? Male and female Brazilian turtles can be raised together. Generally speaking, they will not conflict unless the food is uneven. Therefore, if you want to polyculture, you need to provide sufficient space and food. （BaXiGuiZenMeFenGongMu，GongMuNengYiQiYangMa）
