What are the skills in purchasing soft-shelled turtle?
1. Look: turtles raised in the wild have a natural blue-yellow tail and a white abdomen. Natural colors and layers are distinct. False turtles, in order to achieve the purpose of bluish yellow, some are dyed with potassium permanganate, and the tail pleats are dyed very yellow; Some added pigment to the feed, and the whole turtle turned yellow. When we buy turtles, we must carefully check whether the turtle color is natural and clear.

2, touch: wild ecological stocking turtles, the skirt is thick and hard. There is no trace when the finger is pressed (comparable to the wild). When a finger is pressed, there will be a mark, which will soon be restored. If the soft-shelled turtle recovers slowly or even difficultly, it can be judged as a soft-shelled turtle in a greenhouse or a soft-shelled turtle sold after being temporarily raised in a pond outside the greenhouse.

3. Grasp: The soft-shelled turtles cultured in wild ecological soft-shelled turtles are wild and highly mobile. They can turn over quickly when it is warm (only a little slower when it is cold), while it is difficult for other cultured turtles to turn over on their own in winter. Even in the cold winter, when the wild ecological turtle is put into the water, it can swim quickly to escape, while other turtles react slowly. )

4. Contrast: The molting of ecological cultured soft-shelled turtle needs 80~90C hot water, and when molting, a large piece or even a whole piece of skin can be peeled off. In general, the water temperature of soft-shelled turtles is above 70 degrees when molting, and the peeled skin is only the size of a fingernail. The skin has faded, and large pieces or even whole pieces have faded, which is something that ordinary turtles can't fake. Only turtles aged 4-5 or wild turtles can do it.

5. Inspection: The intestinal tract of the ecological turtle is thin, the liver is not swollen, the oil in the abdomen is naturally yellow, it is not easy to disperse, and the abdomen is flat. However, the soft-shelled turtle raised in greenhouse or temporarily looks bloated, with prominent abdominal clip, thick intestine, swollen liver and more oil in the abdomen.

6. Try: Turn the tortoise upside down and lay it flat on the ground. If you can turn over quickly, escape quickly and move flexibly, you are a superior turtle; If the turnover is slow and the action is slow, they are all inferior turtles.
