In the blink of an eye, the peach blossoms and apricot blossoms gradually bloom, and the charming floral fragrance also fascinates the flower turtles who like to pick honey. Today, I would like to introduce a face-to-face bearer of the family Golden Turtle, the indigenous people of the African rainforest and subtropical savanna: the Great King Flower Golden Turtle. In addition to the handsome pattern, "big" is its biggest feature.
Beautiful faces require careful care, as does the breeding of the King Flower Golden Turtle. Like many African flower golden turtles, the most common food of adults in the wild is tree sap. In captivity, brown syrup is the best alternative food. Owners interested in DIY, teach you a recipe for a favorite food recipe for the Big King Flower Golden Turtle: brown sugar and water are heated in a pan in a 3:1 ratio until the sugar is completely melted. Once cooled, the adults can enjoy the delicacy. Of course, there are easier options, if you don't want to boil the brown syrup, you can also directly choose the brown sugar flavored beetle jelly, which is also quite delicious.
As for the living environment, the king flower golden turtle needs the same humidity as other insects. The moss is slightly wet, but not too wet. It is to squeeze hard with your hands, and no water will drip down.
Eating and living carefree and agreeing with the king flower golden turtle couple are about to prepare to give birth. Because of its body length and width, the egg-laying box of the King Flower Golden Turtle should be larger, and the egg-laying medium should be a little deeper. 25CM-30CM of fermented wood chips is an ideal depth, and one thing to remember is that the bottom 8-10cm of fermented wood chips should be compacted, which can promote the laying of eggs by expectant mothers. Remember to put the bark or trunk on the surface of the fermented wood chips as a climbing object, which can help the adults turn over.
Only one female can be kept in an egg-laying box, because during the birth of the baby, the other may step on the baby while strolling, which is quite dangerous. In addition, the lid of the spawning box must be fastened, because the king flower golden turtle is strong and has a strong flying ability, and there is often news that the lid of the box is flying.
The warm and comfortable home is ready, just wait for the good news from the delivery room of the king flower golden turtle mother.
