Turtle gender and age
In the breeding process of turtles, the identification of their sex and age is a very important part. How to identify the sex and age of turtles? Jiang Zhanglin, director of the leading museum of amphibious reptiles in Haining, Zhejiang Province, answered the following questions: Sex identification females are mostly yellow-brown or loess, male turtles are mostly dark black; females are larger in size, narrower and wider in front of the dorsal shell, rough and thick in texture, concentric rings on the scutellum are clear, male body type Small, wide and narrow in front of back shell, smooth and thin in texture, concentric rings of scutellum are unclear; female turtle is flat, with thick and short tail, male turtle is slightly concave in plastron, tail is slender and base is thick (Transfer At the base); female turtles have no odor and males have special odors. Age calculations are based on the number of concentric rings (growth rings) on the scutellum of a turtle, and one ring is a growing period of one year. Of course, factors such as the different turtle species, the sharpness of the ring, and the presence of ring marks at hatch also affect the accuracy of age. Turtles are generally longer lived and can live for decades.
