How to raise yellow-headed side-necked turtles:
1. Container: Yellow-headed side-necked turtles are relatively large in size, so providing them with sufficient space is an important task.
2. Feeding: Although yellow-headed side-necked turtles can eat more food, in general, they prefer to eat vegetarian food, so vegetarian food can be used as their main food, such as aquatic plants and algae and stems and leaves of various plants. At the same time, you can feed some meat in moderation, such as fish and shrimp, but not too much.

3. Water temperature: in the process of breeding yellow-headed side-necked turtles , it is best to keep the water temperature in the right range all the time, specifically between 24-28 degrees. If the water temperature is too low, the appetite of the yellow-headed side-necked turtle will decrease and the growth rate will slow down.
4. Water quality: Yellow-headed side-neck turtles have relatively high requirements on water quality, so attention should be paid to ensuring water quality during the breeding process. You need to pay attention to changing the water in time. When there are omnivorous food and garbage in the container, you need to clean it up in time.
5. Sunbathing: The yellow-headed side-necked turtle has higher requirements for sunbathing. Yellow-headed side-necked turtles may have their skin rotted if left in water for long periods of time. Therefore, it is best to let the yellow-headed side-necked turtle bask in the sun every day, and it is more convenient to put a drying table in the container.
