Methods are as follows:

One, the production of hatching box

Hatching box is the box used to incubate the eggs of turtles, the production of hatching box should pay special attention to the permeability of the box, which is the key to the hatching box.

1, hatching box production is very simple, first of all, find a box with a lid, there must be a lid, because there is a lid to keep the humidity inside the hatching box, the lid is best transparent.

2, secondly, in the four corners of the lid on each with a soldering iron to play a breathable holes, so that the hatching box got it, pay attention to the breathable holes can not play more than four will be enough, otherwise the effect of moisturizing will be greatly reduced.

Two, turtle egg hatching materials

1, hatching materials

Turtle egg hatching materials have a variety of, soil, what, vermiculite can be, but in terms of humidity retention, vermiculite is the best choice, so it is recommended that we use vermiculite, vermiculite can be bought from the market, the price is not expensive.

2, cleaning and disinfection

Wash the hatching material in water several times to ensure that the hatching material is clean and pollution-free, put it into the microwave oven to disinfect it at high temperature for 3-5 minutes, and finally put the vermiculite in pure water to soak for about 30 minutes.

3, moisture control

Vermiculite will drain the water, vermiculite does not appear wet, until you can pinch into a ball does not fall apart, this step is very important, not enough water, moisturizing time will be short, too wet, will cause the embryo in the high-temperature, high humidity environment grows too fast, the embryo development is too large, the air inside the egg is filled, the embryo suffocated in the egg, the death of fertilized eggs in the late hatch is basically the reason for this. So this step should be extra careful.

Three, the layout of the incubation box

1, the thickness of vermiculite

The drained vermiculite into the prepared incubation box, the thickness of the vermiculite is about half of the height of the box to two-thirds of the box between, so that a small amount of space to put the egg, the bottom can not be too thick.

2, the placement of the thermometer

Thermometer placement is not too much to pay attention to, the thermometer will be placed flat on the hatching material, placed on one side can be.

3, the placement of the egg

1) will be laid, mark the egg, which side of the egg face up to mark the mark, do this mark is in order to later in the development of the egg in the process of a slight rotation as well as due to accidents caused by the overturning of the egg can be restored to its original position without affecting the development of the embryo.

②Transfer the egg out, put it into the incubator on top of the vermiculite, fix the egg, and put the lid on, the arrangement of the incubator is complete.

Four, the management of the incubation period

1, increase the humidity of the method

① Vermiculite with water

After 2 months of incubation, the vermiculite's humidity has evaporated almost, and at this time we have to give the vermiculite with water, you can use a syringe to the vermiculite injection of pure water, or you can use a spray bottle to spray the vermiculite with pure water.

②Replace the vermiculite

Make a new hatching box with new vermiculite and move the eggs to the new hatching box, again, the vermiculite needs the right amount of moisture.

Calculation of the time of shelling: according to the temperature of incubation can be deduced from the time of shelling, usually the eggs before shelling will have water droplets coming out, this time we should often open the incubation box, as long as there is a hatchling out to take it out, so as to avoid hatchlings in the incubation box flipped over to the other eggs, resulting in the destruction of other eggs and unnecessary losses.

Fifth, the rearing management of the hatchlings

1, the hatchlings have just come out of the shell because the humidity in the hatching box is relatively high, so once the hatchlings come out of the shell, we must make a higher humidity environment, slowly wait for the humidity to evaporate before you can not put directly into a drier environment, otherwise the hatchlings will not adapt.

2. Generally, the hatchlings start feeding after 3 days.
