Ink Turtle

To distinguish between real and fake Ink Turtle, first we need to understand what is Ink turtle, is the ink turtle a new species of turtle? Not originally. A black tortoise refers to a male tortoise that turns black after becoming sexually mature. It is a turtle species that is very popular among turtle lovers.

What is needed is a long time of breeding. Some It takes more than ten years to raise an ink turtle.

Two, how to distinguish true and false ink turtles

Since Ink turtles are so difficult to raise, so some unscrupulous merchants will mess with the color. Some merchants will dye the tortoises that are not black, so be careful when purchasing.

1. If the head, hands and feet of the turtle are also dyed, look carefully at the eyes of the turtle. The eyes of the real ink turtle are also completely black; the eyes of the fake ones are also completely black. No.
