Tshela ubudala obufanele bokuthi kufanele ube ngumnikazi noma umfuyi, kodwa hhayi njalo ngalesi simo konke kuxazululwa kalula. Ngezinye izikhathi umnikazi wempuphu yesikhathi esizayo kufanele abhekane nomthengisi ongathembeki noma umane ongenalwazi ophethe into esemqoka ukudubula izimpahla, ngaphandle kokungena emininingwaneni. Uma unesidalwa esincane, ungacabanga ukuthi ngabe siphila nini. Kodwa uma isivele isidalwa esingumuntu omdala, kunzima ukucacisa iminyaka yezintuthu zokuqala. Kodwa kunezindlela ezilula ezizokusiza wenze ngisho nokubala okulinganiselwe, noma ngabe ngaphambili awuzange ubhekane nalezi zidalwa ezinhle.
Ukwazi kanjani iminyaka ye-tortoise yomhlaba?
- Hlola iminyaka ye-tortle phezu kwegobolondo. Kuvela ukuthi umbusi ojwayelekile angasiza ezinkalweni zethu ezithakazelisayo. Silinganisela ibanga eliphakathi kwamaphuzu aphezulu egobolondo bese uqhathanisa umphumela netafula elilandelayo:
- I-tortle esanda kuzalwa - ubude bezingalo ezi-3 cm;
- yobudala kuya ku-1 ngonyaka - 5 cm;

Kule nkinga, indlela yokunquma iminyaka ye-tortoise yomhlaba, kunezinhlayiya eziningi ezithinta kakhulu izibalo. Kungani leli tafula linikeza imiphumela embalwa kuphela? Kuningi kunqunywa yi-feed kanye nezinye izimo zokugcina isilwane sakho. Ngakho-ke, ngisho nezilinganiso zobude begobolondo unikeza idatha eseduzane kuphela.
