Many people now choose to buy pets online, mainly because the prices are cheaper. But you get what you pay for, and there are always many instances where the actual product does not match the picture.
This young man has always wanted to buy a pet, so he chose to buy it online. When the product arrived, he was dumbfounded. What is this?
This man had limited funds and no experience in raising pets, so he directly bought a turtle to raise. He believes that turtles are easy to raise. He only needs to feed them occasionally and change the water, and it does not consume too much energy on his part.
So, he purchased a turtle online and it took about 3 days to arrive. At first, he was worried that the turtle's life would be in danger if it didn't eat or drink for three days and nights. But he decided to place an order only when the store promised that if an accident occurred, the seller would bear all responsibilities.
He waited anxiously for three days. When the goods arrived, his face was full of doubts, and he almost doubted his life: What kind of rare breed is this? It’s really unheard of and unseen. The turtle he received was obviously different from the one in the picture. Why did this turtle grow two heads?
This is the first time I have seen this kind of turtle. After the young man asked the store, the store was also confused and couldn't figure out the situation for a while. I guess the store didn’t notice the turtle had two heads when it was shipped! Fortunately, the man thought the turtle was special and had no intention of returning it.
In fact, the turtle having two heads is a mutation phenomenon. Bicephaly is a deformity that can be seen as twins that are not separated. Some experts also believe that it may be caused by environmental degradation or inbreeding, but the specific cause cannot be determined.
Veterinarian Xiao Ming thought that since he got a two-headed turtle by chance, he should take good care of it. Don't dislike it because it's special. You must know that meeting it in the vast sea of people is a kind of fate. You must be responsible.After all, it can also bring a little fun to your boring life.
What are the living habits of turtles?
Turtles mainly inhabit waters such as rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. They mostly stay in the water during the day. When the summer is hot, they will look for shady places in groups. They do not fight with each other. When they are frightened, they will immediately retract their heads, limbs and tail into their shells.
In terms of diet, it is an omnivorous animal, feeding on insects, small fish, shrimps, young leaves, duckweed, rice, etc. It has a strong ability to resist hunger and will not starve to death if it does not eat for several months.
In addition, turtles are also temperature-changing animals. When the water temperature is below 10 degrees, they will hibernate in the mud at the bottom of the water. The hibernation time is generally from November to April of the following year. It will only come out to move when the water temperature rises to 15 degrees.
