The yellow-headed temple turtle is a typical large semi-aquatic turtle with a certain terrestrial habit. Regardless of whether it is raised in deep or shallow water, it should be kept in a terrestrial environment. Temple tortoises grow fast, and the annual weight gain can reach more than one kilogram, so you must be mentally prepared before raising them, and think about whether there is enough breeding space for turtles and turtles, and then start.

The yellow-headed temple turtle lives in rivers, lakes and streams, and can live in seawater for a short time, but it also has certain terrestrial habits. The native environment of the yellow-headed temple turtle is close to the tropical climate, with high temperature and short dormancy period, so it cannot adapt to the cold climate in northern my country. There are a few examples in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hunan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Jiangxi and other places that show that the temple turtle can survive in the local climate, but the growth rate has a greater impact.
