From the outside, it should be Chinese grass turtle.
How to tell the difference between male and female turtles?
The male and female of a tortoise can be judged by the length of its tail (the length is male and the short is female), or by its abdominal armor (the concave is male and the flat is female), or by its reproductive hole (the male is beyond the carapace, and vice versa). However, the above judgment methods are accurate only in sub-adults or adults, and the above criteria should not be used in larvae. Furthermore, the comparison method can be used to distinguish the larvae, that is, if the reactions in all aspects are different, the probability of being a male-female pair will be relatively improved. Because males are naturally active, they are placed on the ground at the same time, and the first Mover is usually male. In addition, the anal shield can be compared, and the abdominal armor is closest to the tail. If the opening angle is small, it is usually female, and vice versa. A master once taught me a method to distinguish those who are difficult to judge gender from their appearance for your reference. It is to grab the turtle's carapace from above by hand, so that the turtle's limbs are suspended. If its tail hooks down and forward (like when mating), it is almost certain to be male. Only box turtles are not applicable. If you want to distinguish between a male and a female, it depends on the position of his abdomen and the drain hole. The male abdomen should be recessed to lower the drain hole, and the female abdomen will be flat and the drain hole will be closer to the abdomen. Tails are also different. The tails of males are thick and short, while those of females are long and thin.
Visually, the landlord is the superior and the inferior, not the superior and the inferior.
