1. How much does an authentic golden coin turtle cost? Where can I buy golden coin turtle seedlings?

The golden coin turtle is a rare turtle species, also known as the broken turtle, red-bellied turtle, golden turtle, etc. It has delicious meat, strong resistance to disease and hunger, and has high edible value, medicinal value and breeding economic value. The information about how much an authentic golden coin turtle costs is as follows.

Price of money beetle

As a traditional Chinese medicine, the golden coin turtle is considered a precious tonic with high ornamental value. At the same time, the number of wild turtles is scarce and has long been included in the second-level national wildlife protection catalog in my country, which has doubled the price of golden coin turtles and made them very expensive.

Currently, a wild beetle in Hainan costs about 20,000 to 25,000 yuan, and a wild beetle in Vietnam costs about 30,000 yuan. There are about 380,000 mature wild male sea turtles in Vietnam; there are about 250,000 wild male black-bottomed turtles. There are about 180,000 wild male turtles in Hainan. There are about 120,000 wild soft-shelled turtles in Guangdong.

If it is a farmed golden coin turtle, the price is naturally cheap. In Guangdong, the wholesale price of a southern golden coin turtle weighing 25 to 35 grams is about 32.8 yuan per piece; a purebred golden coin turtle weighing 2 to 3 taels is wholesaled at 52 yuan per piece. In Guangxi, the wholesale price of beetle seedlings is 15 yuan per piece.

Where to buy golden beetles.

There are few places selling real golden turtles. After all, they protect animals and there is no market. However, if you want to buy one, you can try your luck at major flower and bird markets, but there is a high chance that you will buy fakes. In addition, you can also go to regular golden turtle farms to buy simulated wild turtles, such as Boluo in Huizhou, Shalang in Maoming, or Qinzhou in Guangxi.

Golden coin turtle species introduction

Scarab beetles can be divided into Vietnamese, Hainan and Guangdong species. The Vietnamese species is the most expensive, followed by the Hainan species, and the Guangdong species is the cheapest. Be sure to identify the species when purchasing to avoid being cheated.

Under the same growth conditions, the Vietnamese species weighs the most, followed by the Hainan species, and the Guangdong species weighs the least. In terms of head characteristics, the Vietnamese species' head is basically gray, the Hainan species' head is generally golden yellow, and the Guangdong species' head is light yellow. In terms of shell color, the Vietnamese species' carapace is brown-red, the Hainan species' head is golden yellow, and the Guangdong species' head is generally light yellow.

The price of a genuine golden coin turtle is between 120,000 and 300,000 yuan. The better the appearance, the more expensive it is. You can go to a local breeding farm, or go to a flower and bird market to take a look. You can buy it in Guangdong and Fujian.

An authentic golden coin turtle costs about 100,000 yuan, which is quite expensive. You can go to some flower and bird markets, where you can buy many varieties.

The golden coin turtle is a national second-class protected animal, so it is best not to buy it privately.

2. Is there any difference between raising golden coin turtles with heating and without heating?

There is a difference between raising golden coin turtles with heating and without heating.

First of all, the golden coin turtle is a cold-blooded animal, and its body temperature changes with the change of environmental temperature. Under the condition of artificial breeding, the adoption of heating breeding can change the hibernation habit of the golden coin turtle, so that the golden coin turtle can eat and grow normally in winter, which can promote the growth of the golden coin turtle and shorten the growth cycle of the golden coin turtle. The heated breeding turtle can reach the specifications of commercial turtles in about 20 months. On the contrary, without heating, the growth of the golden coin turtle will be delayed.

Secondly, in the breeding of golden coin turtles, golden coin turtle seedlings are often relatively weak. It is generally recommended to adopt the breeding method of heating for the first year and to take careful care to prevent the turtle seedlings from getting sick. Generally, the water temperature should reach 28°C or the air temperature should reach 30°C. At this temperature, the turtles are less likely to get sick and continue to eat and grow. On the contrary, if the temperature is not increased, the golden coin turtle seedlings will easily get sick.

Benefits of heating (it is recommended to heat during breeding):

First of all, there is no concept of heating for turtles and tortoises living in nature. Of course, if there happens to be a hot spring in the living area of ​​the golden coin turtle, then there is nothing to say. Here we are only discussing that most of the situations in nature do not have the concept of heating, so in winter, turtles and tortoises will hibernate, including the golden coin turtle mentioned in this article. When turtles and tortoises enter the hibernation state, they do not eat or drink and stop growing, but even so, they still need to consume energy to maintain the most basic operation of life. Therefore, it depends on the energy absorbed by the golden coin turtle before winter. If the golden coin turtle has enough energy in its body, it can safely survive the entire winter. Therefore, many turtles often cannot survive the entire long winter. This is the law of elimination in nature. However, artificial breeding of golden coin turtles takes price and profit as the first starting point, so the way to allow turtles and tortoises to safely survive the winter is to breed them with heating.

There is a big difference, especially in reproduction. Turtles that are kept in a heated environment for a long time (especially those that are heated in winter and do not hibernate) will lose their reproductive ability.

This, with heating, fast metabolism, is easier to be healthy, but the water cleaning and food will be larger and grow faster.

On the contrary, that's it. If it can be normal, just keep it normal!

The ones that are heated grow faster, while the ones that are not heated grow slower

Heating the golden coin turtle seedlings can accelerate their growth rate, but they hibernate less, their immunity decreases, and they are more susceptible to illness. In addition, long-term heating will change the turtle's living habits and completely lose its fertility. Source: Maoming Golden Coin Turtle Purchase and Sales Center

3. How much is a 2012 southern golden coin turtle seedling? Who has it for sale?

The southern species are all above 330. You can go to the turtle trading forum (turtle supply and demand information network) to check. This is a Maoming website.

Or find a QQ group for South China turtle trading or something like that.

Raising so many! It will be a headache for you when they grow up in a year.

The price of turtle seedlings is usually around 5-10 yuan. Generally, one turtle seedling costs 10 yuan.

It's too expensive now. They're already at the end of their lifespan. They're useless. I don't recommend buying them. By the way, be careful about that Shenma Maoming website. The water in Maoming is quite deep. Haha

4. If you have ever raised golden coin turtles at home, please come in. I have some questions to ask.

1. There is no problem with indoor breeding. The weather in Guangzhou is still suitable for raising stone turtles, and heat dissipation is not a big problem. If you are raising turtle seedlings, they must be kept warm. In winter, the indoor temperature is usually controlled at 30 degrees with air conditioning. In this way, the turtle seedlings will not hibernate and grow quickly. Generally, the turtle seedlings here can be raised to about 4 taels the next year, and those with a good appetite can reach half a catty. Haha, the turtle seedlings in 2009 have doubled by now. Let me tell you, this is a good business.

2. Cement surface is good, but the construction cost is high. It is better to design a skylight above each pool. Why? Turtles also need sunlight! It can absorb UVA and UVB, promote digestion and bone growth of turtle seedlings.

3. Haha... There are many aspects to pay attention to, especially disease prevention. We design three-dimensional pools (4 to 5 layers) for raising turtle seedlings. 1.2*1 is no problem for raising 100 turtles.

I am from the hometown of the turtle breeding "base", you can discuss it. Q:57660623
